SAML in Delphi 2010 - delphi

I need to implement SAML in web based Delphi 2010 application. Are there any components available in Delphi 2010 to implement?Are there any delphi sample code available?
I could see sample code for .net but not for Delphi Please let me know.
Thank you in advance

I have had a look around the web, as far as I am able to tell, delphi 2010 doesn't have a component for the implementation of SAML.
The most helpful website I have been able to find is this: http://codeverge.com/embarcadero.delphi.non-tech/saml-in-delphi-2010/1087146 (Link leads out of stack overflow) but as far as I can tell delphi has no components for it, Sorry!

Will programs developed using Embarcadero Delphi XE3 work with Embarcadero Delphi 2010

We are trying to develop a form that will be added to a project written and created using Embarcadero Delphi 2010 , We will use Embarcadero Delphi XE3 as our Development Environemt, will the code that we will write work on Embarcadero Delphi 2010 ?
If not where can I download Embarcadero Delphi 2010, I can't find it on the Embarcadero official site.
Thanks
Previous versions can be downloaded here:
http://www.embarcadero.com/xe3-earlier-versions
Depends ....
if you don't use rtti and generics and remove qulified namespaces, restrict the use of foreign components it could work, but i think it's not recommended.
If you are properly registered you have an edn account:
Pick Downloads / Registered User Downloads
It is in there. You should be able to go back to Delphi 7. 2010 is at the bottom of the page.
The latest stuff in XE3 is highly recommended. The improvements over the last few years are definitely worth it, and the upgrade will pay for itself in very short time even if you only gradually learn and use the new stuff.

Installing HTML Components into Delphi XE

I think pbear's component HTML Components, v 9.45, is just what I need. His free download only has packages for Delphi 2006 and earlier. I have Delphi XE. How would I install his components into my Delphi?
Try this Google code download site THtmlViewer.
Seems to be updated to XE2 version plus Lazarus.
See also this answer to SO question How to display an email images on Pbear Html viewer component?.
Have you considered using Delphi Chromium Embedded? This is the Delphi API for Google's Chromium, which is used by the Google Chrome web browser. Several Delphi versions are supported, including XE and XE2.
Unless you only need rudimentary browser support, it makes sense to use an up-to-date browser with solid support for modern web standards.
The repository includes Delphi sample projects for VCL and FireMonkey.

What testing framework/unit testing to use with Delphi XE Starter Edition

I'm looking at moving from Delphi 2007 (purchased by my employer) to Delphi XE Starter Edition (purchased by me because my employer is moving away from Delphi) for some open source/hobby work. So, price is definitely a concern.
Delphi XE Starter Edition doesn't appear to have the integrated DUnit stuff. Are there any recommendations for testing frameworks that will work well with XE Starter? The framework must be automatible; for example, it must must be runnable by a Continuous Integration System such as Hudson or CruiseControl. Of course, free would be best. Integration directly into the IDE would also be handy, but not a requirement.
DUNIT is on SourceForge so you can get it from there. The version on SF is 9.4.0, the same that ships with Delphi XE. The code is however not identical. I do not know if it works with Delphi XE Starter edition but I don't see why it should not.
Will DUnit2 do?
Dunit2 is used in tiOPF framework and said to be quite good. The download sites are:
http://sourceforge.net/projects/dunit2/
http://members.optusnet.com.au/~mcnabp/
http://github.com/graemeg/dunit2
DUnit may be a better choice that DUnit2. With DUnit you can use the jcl and USE_JEDI_JCL to get the line numbers of failures. DUnit2 doesn't appear to support this.
DUNit2 doesn't seem to be getting much attention since Peter's death either. I don't know if it has been updated to use the latest version of delphi but it doesn't look like it.

Good Delphi Prism online resources

A Google search on "delphi prism", "delphi prism resources" or "delphi prism code snippets" reveal almost no good sites at all are there any good programming site(s) with some good amount of code snippets and tutorials on Delphi Prism?
Thanks in advance!
#omair, you have you have basically five ways to obtain information about Delphi Prism
1) The official Info
Prism Wiki
Developing for Mono with Delphi Prism
2) Using the Blogs
Introduction to Language Integrated Query with Delphi Prism: Part 1
Introduction to Language Integrated Query with Delphi Prism, Part 2
Using LINQ to Objetcs in Delphi Prism
Introduction to Delphi Prism (CodeProject)
Delphi Prism and the Cirrus Framework (#jamiei blog)
Dynamically compiling code with Delphi Prism (#jamiei blog)
Dynamically generating code with Delphi Prism (#jamiei blog)
Delphi Prism and the Microsoft Rx Framework (#jamiei blog)
3) as #jamiei suggest Translate the C# or VB .Net Code to Delphi Prism is not difficult, you can use the C# to Oxygene Tool or you can do it manually.
4) the books
Delphi Prism Development Essentials Dr. Bob
Delphi Prism Manual de referecnia (spanish)
Delphi for .NET Developer's Guide (this book is about delphi .Net but is very useful)
.NET 2.0 for Delphi Programmers (very nice book, cover intermediate and advanced topics about .Net under a Delphi Programmer Perspective)
5) Ask in StackOverflow
Agreed, along with the Prism Documentation Wiki it's worth noting that the best resources for .NET code are nearly all composed of C# code snippet sites.
The RemObjects team have built a C# to Oxygene tool and have even integrated it into the IDE so you can copy C# code from sites such as CodeProject and the MSDN documentation and paste it directly as Delphi Prism code into the IDE.
Best place I find is http://prismwiki.codegear.com/en/Main_Page
There's also the various CodeGear and RemObjects newsgroups.
Prism was just a rebranding of the Oxygene compiler. If you search for Oxygene then you are more likely to find resources.

About Delphi Wings (ORM)

Someone knows if Delphi Wings (The Embarcadero ORM for Delphi) will be available in Delphi 2010? I'm testing some ORMs but I will preffer the Embarcadero one, if it's available shortly.
Regards,
Francis
Wings isn't an officially endorsed Embarcadero ORM that will be part of Delphi. It is a project developed by Paweł Głowacki, who is an Embarcadero employee.
I didn't know that Embarcadero plan something like this. CodeGear and current Delphi already supports ECO. See also embarcadero developer network.
BTS ECO is an excellent framework that should be investigated, I have started using it myself.
