Requesting a Token from Access Control Service in Java - Maciej ("Ski") Skierkowski's Blog - Site Home

[UPDATE 2/11: Updated to use new STS V0.9 instead of V0.8]

Following demonstrates requesting a token from the .NET Services Access Control Services using a Shared Secret and another using a Simple Web Token.

You'll also need these three libraries to help in the encoding process and the HTTP calls. There are some hacky pieces of code here, but that's mostly due to my ignorance in Java. Feedback to make this better quality code is welcome.
