WCF 4.0 Cookie Only First is Recorded by Browser

Question

I am working on the fastest way to write cookies from a WCF self hosted console app REST service with WebHttpBinding. I prepare the \"Set Cookies\" but only the first cookie

Answer 1

To expand on @jeff-fischer 's answer, AspNetCompatibilityMode does work and requires the following:

AspNetCompatibilityRequirements is set for the service class to either Allowed or Required e.g.:

[AspNetCompatibilityRequirements(RequirementsMode
       = AspNetCompatibilityRequirementsMode.Allowed)]
public class AppService : IAppService

is set in

This then gives access to HttpContext (you'll need using System.Web; to get access to this) and cookies can be set using:

var aCookie = new HttpCookie("foo")
{
    HttpOnly = true,
    Value = "bar",
    Expires = DateTime.Now.AddDays(1)
};

HttpContext.Current.Response.Cookies.Add(aCookie);

This will then need to be run as an application on IIS rather than though the WCF launcher and if multiple cookies are set, multiple cookie headers will actually appear.
