(C#) Demonstrates how to Get Cookies Sent by the HTTP Server

This example demonstrates how to get the cookies that have been received from the HTTP server.

Chilkat .NET Downloads Chilkat .NET Framework Chilkat for .NET Core

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

Chilkat.Http http = new Chilkat.Http();

// When the HTTP object's SaveCookies property is turned on, the cookies received from the server
// are persited to the CookieDir, which could be a directory where cookie XML files are persisted,
// or the keyword "memory" to keep an in-memory store.

http.SaveCookies = true;
http.CookieDir = "memory";

// Do a few GET's 
string html = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.google.com/");
html = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.amazon.com/");

// Examine the cookies received from each domain.
string googleCookies = http.GetCookieXml("www.google.com");
Debug.WriteLine(googleCookies);

// Sample output:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <cookies>
//     <cookie key=".google.com,/,NID" v="0" expire="Mon, 25-Sep-2017 04:26:57 GMT">
//         <NID>99=AjPVGwqGMP04vlJfmb2r0Zuorv43CnFNWFrIDz8IUrcF5ozTXa7DWBRUR1-_WqcXXQymVNLe9Umr84N87ynLAYzlRZ74ww9pU8f1ZK-pHL88RPcobnlsxE7Xi-XdXR1a6dCQ-5hOoHw7juRB</NID>
//     </cookie>
// </cookies>
// 
string amazonCookies = http.GetCookieXml("www.amazon.com");
Debug.WriteLine(amazonCookies);

// Sample output:

// <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
// <cookies>
//     <cookie key=".amazon.com,/,skin" v="0">
//         <skin>noskin</skin>
