Caching cookies in-memory.

See more HTTP Examples

Caching cookies in-memory. To automatically save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the CookieDir property equal to the keyword "memory". Also, set the SaveCookies property = _TRUE_. If the SendCookies property = _TRUE_, then any cached cookies are automatically re-sent with subsequent GETs and POSTs. AutoIt

; This example assumes the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
; See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

$oHttp = ObjCreate("Chilkat.Http")

; To save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the
; CookieDir equal to "memory".  Also,
; set the SaveCookies property:
$oHttp.CookieDir = "memory"
$oHttp.SaveCookies = True

; To cause cached cookies to be sent with 
; subsequent HTTP requests, set the SendCookies
; property = True.
$oHttp.SendCookies = True

; Any methods that do a GET, POST, etc. will save 
; cookies to the CookieDir (which in this case is an 
; in-memory cache.

$sHtml = $oHttp.QuickGetStr("https://www.paypal.com/")

; To fetch the XML cookie(s) for a domain, call GetCookieXml:
Local $sXmlStr
$sXmlStr = $oHttp.GetCookieXml("paypal.com")

ConsoleWrite($sXmlStr & @CRLF)

; It's content will look something like this:

; <cookies>
;     <cookie key=".paypal.com,/" v="0" secure="yes">
;         <navcmd>_home-general</navcmd>
;         <HttpOnly />

;     </cookie>
; </cookies>

; If another HTTP request is sent, the cookies should
; be added:
$sHtml = $oHttp.QuickGetStr("https://www.paypal.com/")

; Check the LastHeader property to see the MIME header
; of the last HTTP request sent.
; The "Cookie" header field should be present.
