JAVA Servlet Library

This Java package includes everything necessary to write Java servlets that authenticate against Raven. It is released under the terms of the GNU General Public Licence version 2.

The Raven Servlet Library was written by Matthew Lavy and Alistair Turnbull, originally for CamCORS.

The Library is available as a .jar file, source and documentation archives. The documentation contain additional information. There is also a github project

This library was lightly updated in June 2015 to support the Ucam WebAuth protocol V3 (and in paticular the ptags paramater in support of Raven-for-life), resulting in v1.0.3b.
