(.NET Core C#) Caching cookies in-memory.

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.

// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

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

// To save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the
// CookieDir equal to "memory".  Also,
// set the SaveCookies property:
http.CookieDir = "memory";
http.SaveCookies = true;

// To cause cached cookies to be sent with 
// subsequent HTTP requests, set the SendCookies
// property = true.
http.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.
string html;
html = http.QuickGetStr("https://www.paypal.com/");

// To fetch the XML cookie(s) for a domain, call GetCookieXml:
string xmlStr;
xmlStr = http.GetCookieXml("paypal.com");

Debug.WriteLine(xmlStr);

// It's content will look something like this:

// <cookies>
//     <cookie key=".paypal.com,/" v="0" secure="yes">
//         <navcmd>_home-general</navcmd>
//         <HttpOnly />
//         <cwrClyrK4LoCV1fydGbAxiNL6iG>9cz...</cwrClyrK4LoCV1fydGbAxiNL6iG>
//     </cookie>
// </cookies>

// If another HTTP request is sent, the cookies should
// be added:
html = http.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.
Debug.WriteLine("--- LastHeader ---");
Debug.WriteLine(http.LastHeader);
