+/**
+ * This example shows several things:
+ * - How a setup interface should look like.
+ * - How to use a mysql table for authentication
+ * - How to store associations in mysql table, instead of php sessions.
+ * - How to store realm authorizations.
+ * - How to send AX/SREG parameters.
+ * For the example to work, you need to create the necessary tables:
+CREATE TABLE Users (
+    id INT NOT NULL auto_increment PRIMARY KEY,
+    login VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL,
+    password CHAR(40) NOT NULL,
+    firstName VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL,
+    lastName VARCHAR(32) NOT NULL
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE AllowedSites (
+    user INT NOT NULL,
+    realm TEXT NOT NULL,
+    attributes TEXT NOT NULL,
+    INDEX(user)
+);
+
+CREATE TABLE Associations (
+    id INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
+    data TEXT NOT NULL
+);
+ *
+ * This is only an example. Don't use it in your code as-is.
+ * It has several security flaws, which you shouldn't copy (like storing plaintext login and password in forms).
+ *
+ * This setup could be very easily flooded with many associations, 
+ * since non-private ones aren't automatically deleted.
+ * You could prevent this by storing a date of association and removing old ones,
+ * or by setting $this->dh = false;
+ * However, the latter one would disable stateful mode, unless connecting via HTTPS.
