public class Cookie

An HTTP cookie.

name and value will be set for all cookies. If the cookie is generated from a string that appears to have no name, then name will be the empty string.

domain and path give the host or domain, and path within that host/domain, to restrict this cookie to. If domain starts with ".", that indicates a domain (which matches the string after the ".", or any hostname that has domain as a suffix). Otherwise, it is a hostname and must match exactly.

expires will be non-%NULL if the cookie uses either the original "expires" attribute, or the newer "max-age" attribute. If expires is null, it indicates that neither "expires" nor "max-age" was specified, and the cookie expires at the end of the session.

If http_only is set, the cookie should not be exposed to untrusted code (eg, javascript), so as to minimize the danger posed by cross-site scripting attacks.

Example: Cookies, sync:

public static int main (string[] args) {
// Create a session:
Soup.Session session = new Soup.Session ();

// Add a logger:
Soup.Logger logger = new Soup.Logger (Soup.LoggerLogLevel.MINIMAL, -1);
session.add_feature (logger);

// Create a cookie:
Soup.Cookie cookie = new Soup.Cookie ("soup-cookie", "my-val", "api.valadoc.org", "/", -1);
SList<Soup.Cookie> list = new SList<Soup.Cookie> ();
list.append (cookie);

// Send a request:
Soup.Message msg = new Soup.Message ("GET", "http://api.valadoc.org/soup-samples/print-and-create-cookies.php");
Soup.cookies_to_request (list, msg);
session.send_message (msg);

// Process the result:
msg.response_headers.foreach ((name, val) => {
print ("%s = %s\n", name, val);
});

print ("Status Code: %u\n", msg.status_code);
print ("Message length: %lld\n", msg.response_body.length);
print ("Data: \n%s\n", (string) msg.response_body.data);

GLib.SList<Soup.Cookie> cookies = Soup.cookies_from_request (msg);
print ("Cookies from request: (%u)\n", cookies.length ());

foreach (Soup.Cookie c in cookies) {
print (" %s: %s\n", c.name, c.value);
}

cookies = Soup.cookies_from_response (msg);
print ("Cookies from response: (%u)\n", cookies.length ());

foreach (Soup.Cookie c in cookies) {
print (" %s: %s\n", c.name, c.value);
}

return 0;
}
