Clear iPhone simulator cookies

问题

I have an app that makes request to a REST service. Authentication is done using cookies. This already works.

What I have problems with is to test the case when the cookie is no longer valid and my code has to reauthenticate. To test this I have to wait until the cookie is invalid, which could take some time. To accelerate this I figured that if I delete the cookie it would have the same effect.

How to delete all cookies of an app on the iPhone simulator?

I already tried the following:

Deleting <app-dir>/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies doesn't work. It seems that my cookies are never written to this file.

Deleting all cookies in NSHTTPCookieStorage on app startup doesn't work either.

回答1:

The cookies are located at:

/Users/<YourUsername>/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/<iOSversion>/Library/Cookies/Cookies.binarycookies

You may need to quit out of Safari (in the fast app switching area) and then delete them so Safari won't have them in memory.

回答2:

YOU CAN RESET THE SIMULATOR

Launch the simulator.
Click the FIRST item on the "menu bar". It says "iOS Simulator"
A menu will appear. Go down three items to "Reset Contents and Settings"
Click "Reset" on the dialog which appears

回答3:

You'll probably find better luck doing this in the SDK code rather than modifying file systems. Try:

    //Delete previous cookies
    NSHTTPCookieStorage *cookieStorage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
    for (NSHTTPCookie *each in [[[cookieStorage cookiesForURL:YOUR_URL] copy] autorelease]) {
        [cookieStorage deleteCookie:each];
    }

I just used fseventer to inspect what happens to the iPhone Simulator filesystem when the "Clear Cookies and Data" button is tapped. These commands replicate that behavior, however, there is a trick:

rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Library/Cookies"
rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Library/Caches/Snapshots"
rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Library/Caches/com.apple.mobilesafari"
rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Library/WebKit"
rm -rf "$HOME/Library/Application Support/iPhone Simulator/5.0/Library/Safari"

The Simulator needs to be restarted. So, before manipulating the filesystem, I run this:

killall "iPhone Simulator"

回答5:

You can go to the home screen, then the settings app. Tap Safari, then scroll down to Clear Cookies. I'm not sure where the cookie file is on the filesystem, ~~somewhere under /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform I'd expect~~ (see Matthew Frederick's answer).

回答6:

Why not force cookie expiration to a low value for testing?

That is exactly the same then.
