[midPoint] Entitlements with associations

[Joshua Williams]

Hi Keith,
I am fairly new to midPoint, so I may be a little off base.  However, I have a Role that is similar to yours.  

To make the Metarole assign the account to the LDAP Posix Group, I have to use <assignment> for the Metarole and <inducement> for writing the LDAP account and attributes.

    <assignment>
      <!-- This assigns the LDAP Group Metarole -->
         <targetRef oid="10000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000003
    </assignment>
   
   <inducement>
     <!-- Sends the job to the appropriate resource -->
      <construction>
         <resourceRef oid="10000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000004"
                      relation="org:default"
                      type="c:ResourceType"></resourceRef> 
        <attribute>
            <c:ref>ri:authServices</c:ref>
            <outbound>
               <strength>strong</strength>
               <expression>
                  <value xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
                         xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
                         xsi:type="xsd:string”>attribute</value>
               </expression>
            </outbound>
         </attribute>  
      </construction> 

   </inducement>

The Metarole I assign is basically this one:  https://github.com/Evolveum/midpoint/blob/master/testing/story/src/test/resources/unix/role-meta-unix-group.xml <https://github.com/Evolveum/midpoint/blob/master/testing/story/src/test/resources/unix/role-meta-unix-group.xml>

The group and the user still get created but the association doesn't seem to work, the user is not assigned to the group.  Below is the inducement to the group that entitles the user with the association
