Sending Cookie info in HttpRequest

Question

I want to call a web service that requires an authentication cookie.

I have the cookie name and value. but I don\'t know how to inject the cookie in the request.

Answer 1

HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();

CookieStore cookieStore = new BasicCookieStore();
Cookie cookie = new BasicClientCookie("name", "value");
cookieStore.addCookie(cookie);

HttpContext localContext = new BasicHttpContext();
localContext.setAttribute(ClientContext.COOKIE_STORE, cookieStore);

HttpGet httpGet = new HttpGet("http://www.domain.com/"); 

HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpGet, localContext);
