Testing Alfresco Share to use an external SSO

As we transition to the new Hyland Community, some post links may be temporarily disrupted as we finalize redirects. We apologize for the inconvenience and are working to resolve this as quickly as possible. Details.

I have done the example mentioned here :– http://docs.alfresco.com/4.2/index.jsp?topic=%2Fcom.alfresco.enterprise.doc%2Ftasks%2Fauth-alfrescoexternal-sso.html –  for connecting Alfresco Share to use an external SSO. No changes made in the given example. My alfresco is running in 8080 port.
The userHeader is given as <userHeader>ExternalSsoSystemHeader</userHeader> itself.

Now I just want to test it with a simple dynamic web applicatoin in eclipse.
I just want to open Alfresco user Dash board page by clicking a button with out showing log in page from a page created in the simple dynamic web application. Can any one write the code here please…

I tried with following JSP code;

<%

URL url1 = new URL("http://localhost:8080/share/page"); 
HttpURLConnection conn = (HttpURLConnection) url1.openConnection(); 
conn.setDoOutput(true);
conn.setDoInput(true);
conn.setRequestProperty("SsoUserHeader", "admin"); 

for (int i = 0;; i++) { 
   String headerName = conn.getHeaderFieldKey(i);  
   String headerValue = conn.getHeaderField(i);   
   System.out.println(headerName + "===");  
   System.out.println(headerValue);  
   if (headerName == null && headerValue == null) {     break;   } 
}
String sessionValue = conn.getHeaderField("Set-Cookie").substring(0,conn.getHeaderField("Set-Cookie").indexOf(";"));
conn.setRequestProperty("Set-Cookie", sessionValue);
conn.connect();
BufferedReader dis = new BufferedReader( 
                         new InputStreamReader(
                             conn.getInputStream()));
String myString;
while ((myString = dis.readLine()) != null)
{
   
    System.out.println(myString);
}

conn.setInstanceFollowRedirects(false);

int responseCode = conn.getResponseCode();
System.out.println( responseCode );
String location = conn.getHeaderField( "Location" );
System.out.println( location );
String urlstring = conn.getHeaderField("Location");
response.sendRedirect(urlstring);

%>
