CAS parameters

It is not something that is supported in the current version of the cas module. Patches are welcome here.

To address the problem I added a new checkbox in the CAS settings:

$form['server']['cas_renew'] = array (
'#type' => 'checkbox',
'#title' => t('Force renew'),
'#default_value' => variable_get('cas_renew', 0),
'#description' => t('Check this box if you require users to renew their credentials when they login to Drupal using CAS. Or if your CAS server is configured to require the renew=true parameter.'),
);

And then if the checkbox is checked I add the renew parameter to the URL and use phpCAS::setServerLoginUrl() to update the URL used by phpCAS::forceAuthentication()

if (is_callable(array(phpCAS,'authenticateIfNeeded')))
{
phpCAS::authenticateIfNeeded();
}
else
{
// If Force Renew is checked, add renew parameter to Server Login URL
if ($cas_renew != 0) {
$ServerLoginUrl = phpCAS::getServerLoginUrl()."&renew=true";
phpCAS::setServerLoginUrl($ServerLoginUrl);
}

phpCAS::forceAuthentication();

}

I didn't use phpCAS::renewAuthentication() because it only includes the renew parameter if the user is already authenticated and the CAS server I am using for authentication requires the renew parameter for all requests.

See attached for updated file.

FYI: The reason that this hasn't gone anywhere is that this is not in patch format, but rather includes the whole module. I'll try and integrate this functionality if I have time, but it would be great if you created a regular patch from the HEAD CVS file. See the Handbooks for more information about how to do this.

Here is a proper patch against the HEAD
