setting Cookies in WebView android

Question

I\'m trying to set some cookies on my WebView to open a browser with the same session that I have on my app.

I read a lot of answers but they don\'t wo

Answer 1

CookieSyncManager cookieSyncManager = CookieSyncManager.createInstance(mWebView.getContext());
...
cookieSyncManager.sync();

is the cause of problem. You should do like this:

CookieSyncManager.createInstance(mWebView.getContext());
...
CookieSyncManager.getInstance().sync();

And there will be no need to manually create WebView...

Answer 2

Solved!!!! the problem is with the webView, I dont know what happend, but If I create the

WebView webView = new WebView(Activity.this);

it works. If I read the webview from activity with findViewById() it doesn't work.

Also if you need to set a list of cookies that you received previously from a website. All you have to do is use a for-loop to go through and set all of them . It helped me to solve the situation
