    157 The {{{write_cert}}} and {{{write_cert_name}}} methods write the X.509 certificate from an identity.  The private keys can similarly be read or written using {{{read_privkey_name}}} and {{{read_privkey}}}.  The following snippet creates an identity, writes it to 2 files and reads it from those files printing the results.  The output files will not contain the private key.

    200200The Attribute constructor takes the issuing identity, the attribute being assigned and the validity period of the assertion (in seconds).  This code assigns a principal to that class using the {{{principal}}} member.  The {{{role}}} member and {{{linking_role}}} members can be used to construct the other kinds of attributes.
    201201
    202 The {{{bake}}} member finalizes the attribute and creates a signed format for export, which one can write using the {{{write}}} and {{{write_name}}} members, that are analogous to {{{write_cert}}} and {{{write_cert_name}}} members of identities.

    204204The {{{bake}}} method exists so that Attributes can contain conjunctions.  If identity A wants to state that friendly admins are admins who are friendly ({{{A.friendly_admin <- A.friendly & A.admin}}}), this code will it:
