<!-- =========== START OF CLASS DESCRIPTION =========== -->
<h2 class="class">Type SessionNegotiator</h2>

<pre class="base-tree">
<a href="__builtin__.object-class.html"><code>object</code></a> --+
         |
        <b>SessionNegotiator</b>
</pre><br />

<hr/>

<p>A session negotiator controls the allowed and preferred association 
types and association session types. Both the <code><a 
href="openid.consumer.consumer.Consumer-class.html" 
class="link"><code>Consumer</code></a></code> and <code><a 
href="openid.server.server.Server-class.html" 
class="link"><code>Server</code></a></code> use negotiators when creating 
associations.</p>
You can create and use negotiators if you:
<ul>
  <li>
    Do not want to do Diffie-Hellman key exchange because you use 
    transport-layer encryption (e.g. SSL)
  </li>
  <li>
    Want to use only SHA-256 associations
  </li>
  <li>
    Do not want to support plain-text associations over a non-secure 
    channel
  </li>
</ul>
It is up to you to set a policy for what kinds of associations to 
accept. By default, the library will make any kind of association that is 
allowed in the OpenID 2.0 specification.
<h1 class="heading">Use of negotiators in the library</h1>
  <p>When a consumer makes an association request, it calls <code><a 
  href="openid.association.SessionNegotiator-class.html#getAllowedType" 
  class="link"><code>getAllowedType</code></a></code> to get the 
  preferred association type and association session type.</p>
  <p>The server gets a request for a particular association/session type 
  and calls <code><a 
  href="openid.association.SessionNegotiator-class.html#isAllowed" 
  class="link"><code>isAllowed</code></a></code> to determine if it 
  should create an association. If it is supported, negotiation is 
  complete. If it is not, the server calls <code><a 
  href="openid.association.SessionNegotiator-class.html#getAllowedType" 
  class="link"><code>getAllowedType</code></a></code> to get an allowed 
  association type to return to the consumer.</p>
  If the consumer gets an error response indicating that the requested 
  association/session type is not supported by the server that contains 
  an assocation/session type to try, it calls <code><a 
  href="openid.association.SessionNegotiator-class.html#isAllowed" 
  class="link"><code>isAllowed</code></a></code> to determine if it 
  should try again with the given combination of association/session 
  type.
