Hello, I am in some kind of a fix... I have been reading around the
subject above and I think Android materials available are very patchy,
and the Android documentation is not very useful without enough
experience. I have never worked with cookies in Java (only PHP)- and
the pages I have read don't discuss both initial AUTHENTICATION and
COOKIES together. And I am finding it difficult to bring together a
working program here. My idea is- I have a form that the user inputs
his credentials, on the click of the button the credentials are passed
to the server, the server responds with a cookie, and this is stored
for future use.
As per the piece of code below, is it possible to make the two
methods: authenticate() and xCookies() (receives, store and set
cookies with requests) work together?
If not please tell me how I can achieve the desired goal (preferably
using HTTP class vis-a-vis URL).
Your assistance will be highly appreciated.
