Question

Can an iPhone application read cookies previously stored by Safari Mobile?

Answer 1

Here's my utils get/set cookie methods.

+(void)setCookie:(NSString *)key withValue:(NSString *)value {
    NSArray *keys = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                     NSHTTPCookieDomain,
                     NSHTTPCookieExpires,
                     NSHTTPCookieName,
                     NSHTTPCookiePath,
                     NSHTTPCookieValue, nil];
    NSArray *objects = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:
                        @"YOURDOMAIN",
                        [NSDate distantFuture],
                        key,
                        @"/",
                        value, nil];    
    NSDictionary *dict = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjects:objects forKeys:keys];
    NSHTTPCookie *cookie = [NSHTTPCookie cookieWithProperties:dict];
    NSHTTPCookieStorage *sharedHTTPCookieStorage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
    [sharedHTTPCookieStorage setCookie:cookie];
}

+(NSString *)getCookie:(NSString *)key {
    NSHTTPCookieStorage *sharedHTTPCookieStorage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
    NSArray *cookies = [sharedHTTPCookieStorage cookiesForURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"YOURDOMAIN"]];
    NSEnumerator *enumerator = [cookies objectEnumerator];
    NSHTTPCookie *cookie;
    while (cookie = [enumerator nextObject])
    {
        if ([[cookie name] isEqualToString:key]) 
        {
            return [cookie value];
        }
    }
    return nil;
}
