Web SSO using Java and SAML 2.0

Question

I'd like to write an web application which does authetification using SAML 2.0 tokens issued by an identity provider. I understand according to this question that there is a viable solution in the PHP world using simpleSAMLphp. Is there a equivalent method in the Java world? Are there out of the box solutions and/or tutorials for common servlet containers or application servers?

Thanks :-)
