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. Rust

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

let http = chilkat::Http::new();

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

// To cause cached cookies to be sent with 
// subsequent HTTP requests, set the SendCookies
// property = true.
http.set_send_cookies(true);

// Any methods that do a GET, POST, etc. will save 
// cookies to the CookieDir (which in this case is an 
// in-memory cache.
let _ = http.quick_get_str("https://www.paypal.com/").unwrap_or_default();

// To fetch the XML cookie(s) for a domain, call GetCookieXml:
let xml_str = http.get_cookie_xml("paypal.com").unwrap_or_default();

println!("{}", xml_str);

// 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:
let _ = http.quick_get_str("https://www.paypal.com/").unwrap_or_default();

// Check the LastHeader property to see the MIME header
// of the last HTTP request sent.
// The "Cookie" header field should be present.
println!("--- LastHeader ---");
println!("{}", http.last_header());
