> In order to support binding the Rampart/C API into our scripting environment it is necessary to supply an interpreter context to the SAML issued_token_acquire callback, but no such capability exists.  Without this it is not possible to bind the Rampart/C SAML API into languages outside of C.  The function ostensibly accepts a context object, but in practice that is simply the rampart_context which cannot be extended to include complex objects such as scripting engine constructs.
> In practice what would be ideal is something like this:
> AXIS2_EXTERN axis2_status_t AXIS2_CALL
> rampart_config_set_issued_token_aquire_function(rampart_config_t *rampart_config,
> 							  const axutil_env_t *env,
> 							  issued_token_callback_func issued_token_aquire,
>                                                           void *context);
> And then change the callback function to look like this:
> 	typedef rampart_issued_token_t *(AXIS2_CALL * issued_token_callback_func)(
> 		const axutil_env_t *env,
> 		rp_property_t *issued_token,
> 		rampart_context_t *rampart_context,
> 		void *ctx);
