As of Grouper 2.1.0, the grouper-shib project (grouper-shib.jar) provides Data Connector extensions and Attribute Definition extensions for the Shibboleth Attribute Resolver. Previously as of version 1.5, the Grouper API distribution (grouper.jar) provided this functionality. Read the Grouper Shib Integration documentation prior to Grouper 2.1 . 

Please note:  Using the Grouper-Shib connector is not the suggested way of integrating Grouper and Shib, unless you have very specific use - cases.  The primary use case for the Grouper-Shib connector is to support the PSP which uses the Shibboleth Attribute Resolver to assist with pushing groups to LDAP/AD.  The normal way of integrating Grouper and Shib it is to push the group information into either a LDAP server or a SQL database and then to consume the groups from there.  This eliminates the need to also install all the Grouper API and supporting jars into your IdP.
