hi Sasa,
Did you try to parse multi set-cookies from one HTTP header? I want to get the cookie value from one response header, but only the first set-cookie can be read out. Thanks.

Hi smitesh,

I'm glad you found it useful. I spent quite some time on that so I thought I will probably save some else's time by posting that code.

Cheers,
Sasa

Thank you very much for answer.

In the code used to read cookie variable Cookieval how is declared?
thanks again

Hi kelem,

cookieValue was member variable in that class declared like this:

Code:

#define KMaxHeaderValueLen 128

...

TBuf8<KMaxHeaderValueLen> cookieValue;

Hello kelem,

I solved that and it worked fine for Symbian 7. I didn't try that code on 3rd edition but I think it should work.

Here is the code I used:

Code:

void CNetwork::SetCookie(RHTTPHeaders aHeaders){
RStringF cookieField = iSess.StringPool().StringF(HTTP::ECookie,RHTTPSession::GetTable());

TBuf8<200> tempBuff;
tempBuff.Append(_L8("JSESSIONID="));

int sLen = strlen(status.sessionId);
tempBuff.Append((const TUint8*)status.sessionId, sLen);

aHeaders.SetRawFieldL(cookieField, (const TDesC8&)tempBuff, _L8(";"));
cookieField.Close();
}

Where "status.sessionId" is char* holding the value that I needed to set as cookie's value.

I hope this will help you.

Regards,
Sasa

I posted a code for reading a cookie from http header but still can't write a cookie. I can write anything accept "Cookie". When I write some value for "Cookie" field, after submiting the data, the "Cookie" field is clear.
Please help me!

Code:

RHTTPResponse resp = aTrans.Response();
RStringPool strP = aTrans.Session().StringPool();
RHTTPHeaders hdr = resp.GetHeaderCollection();
THTTPHdrFieldIter it = hdr.Fields();

TBuf<KMaxHeaderNameLen> fieldName16;
TBuf<KMaxHeaderValueLen> fieldVal16;

RStringF fieldCokie = strP.StringF(HTTP::ESetCookie,RHTTPSession::GetTable());
THTTPHdrVal fieldVal;
THTTPHdrVal cookie;

if (hdr.GetField(fieldCokie,0,fieldVal) == KErrNone){

RStringF basic = strP.StringF(HTTP::ECookie,RHTTPSession::GetTable());
RStringF realm = strP.StringF(HTTP::ECookieValue,RHTTPSession::GetTable());

if ((fieldVal.StrF() == basic) &&
(!hdr.GetParam(fieldCokie, realm, cookie))){
RStringF realmValStr = strP.StringF(cookie.StrF());
cookieValue.Copy(realmValStr.DesC());
}
}
