Where to add SAML AuthNRequest class JAR file in case of container enironment

Hi Team

I have created custom JAR file to handle SAML AuthNRequest. The class is extending other class named com.ibm.wsspi.security.web.saml.AuthnRequestProvider.

I have tried to create shared library and assigned it to classloader of JVM so that it loads when server starts, but in the logs I verified class not found for the class name I have configured.

In traditional environment, we can put the JAR file in AppServer/lib/ext directory, whats the way for container based environment?

You can place the JAR file in <profile_root>/classes directory according to this documentations - Developing a custom trust association interceptor - IBM Documentation
