Class ClientCookieEncoder


  • public final class ClientCookieEncoder
    extends CookieEncoder
    A RFC6265 compliant cookie encoder to be used client side, so only name=value pairs are sent. Note that multiple cookies are supposed to be sent at once in a single "Cookie" header.

     HttpRequest req = ...;
     res.setHeader("Cookie", ClientCookieEncoder.encode("JSESSIONID", "1234"));

      • LAX

        public static final ClientCookieEncoder LAX
        Lax instance that doesn't validate name and value, and (for methods that accept multiple cookies) keeps cookies in the order in which they were given.
