Interface CookieStore

public interface CookieStore

A CookieStore object represents a storage for cookie. Can store and retrieve cookies.

CookieManager will call CookieStore.add to save cookies for every incoming HTTP response, and call CookieStore.get to retrieve cookie for every outgoing HTTP request. A CookieStore is responsible for removing HttpCookie instances which have expired.

Since:
1.6
