Please note that the GridRPC config file is not per session,
but per whole client program.

the config file should be passed to the saga::rpc class, like

 saga::rpc.init(config_file);

where 'init' is a class method of the rpc class.

We do have an java implementation for Ninf-G client.
if your SAGA reference implementation is Globus-based and
written in Java, it will be relatively easy to make it
Ninf-G aware.
