Why integrate a full example that will mess up the integration?!
... any portal system or website you might want to integrate jforum in may have its own mechanism of how it works. Why providing a full example if you can't get it to work? You always have to work on both ends of it: You have to fill something on the surrounding side, that you can read on the inner side ... simple as that.
So this way you have the basic signatures that you can use, and can fill those methods with the code that will best match your requirements and needs on how it should work.
In my case for instance ... a cookie sso example would have been useless, as I'm working with URLs - that are encrypted. And if you start with these things, it'd be kind of dangerous to provide full examples as users may tend to not change the IV, Key, ... and thus anyone could actually break in.
I think it has been solved in a good way. And - if you have a look in the forum you may find
alot of discussion on this topic aswell, which gives an idea on how to implement it. Even full code can be found too - but keep in mind that in order to use this code you will have to write the required data on the surrounding site
