Java SDK Files

The CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone Java SDK is implemented as several Java archive files. You specify their location during installation. The most important file, fedsdk.jar, contains two Java interfaces (IFederationOpenIdentity.java and the legacy FederationIdentity.java) and other supporting Java classes. Your Java application must instantiate an implementation object for one of these interfaces and call the methods as your requirements dictate.

The smapi.jar archive includes classes that support customizing an assertion generator plug-in. The Javadoc includes information about the methods in these classes and all the other classes in the SDK.
