How to create a dumb mode or stateless consumer

[GoogleCodeExporter]

            // perform discovery on the user-supplied identifier
            List discoveries = manager.discover(userSuppliedString);

            // attempt to associate with the OpenID provider
            // and retrieve one service endpoint for authentication
            DiscoveryInformation discovered = manager.associate(discoveries);

            // store the discovery information in the user's session
            httpReq.getSession().setAttribute("openid-disc", discovered);

            // obtain a AuthRequest message to be sent to the OpenID provider
            AuthRequest authReq = manager.authenticate(discovered, returnToUrl);

How to create a dumb mode or stateless consumer without discovery and 
associate?

Assciations are optional but discovery is required.

Forcing stateless mode can be done by setting following (before 
manager.associate() is called):

manager.setMaxAssocAttempts(0)

manager.associate() will in this case not attempt to associate and will return 
the first entry from the discoveries list. This should be passed later to 
manager.verify(), to avoid re-running discovery (which involves network calls) 
if possible.
