Hello,
Env: I have JDK1.7 (Linux, Blackdown), Jserv 1.1 Final and Apache 1.3.11.
Problem: I'm trying to remove cookies by calling setMaxAge(0) on them.
It doesn't appear to work for me - even after calling setMaxAge(0) I
can
see the cookies with the following piece of javascript:
javascript:if(document.cookie.length<1){alert('No cookie for this
site.')}else{alert('Cookie for this site:'+document.cookie)}
Here is the complete method that I am trying to use to remove cookies. I use
WebMacro, Jon is very familiar with that one.
/**
*
*/
private void expireCookies(WebContext context)
{
System.err.println("In expireCookies");
Cookie cookies[] = context.getRequest().getCookies();
int cookieCount = cookies.length;
String username = null;
String password = null;
for (int i=0; i<cookieCount; i++)
{
Cookie cookie = cookies[i];
System.err.println("N: " + cookie.getName() + " V: " +
cookie.getValue());
if (cookie.getName().equals("username"))
{
System.err.println("expiring...");
// expire the cookie
cookie.setMaxAge(0);
System.err.println("max age: " + cookie.getMaxAge()); // prints a
zero
context.getResponse().addCookie(cookie);
}
else if (cookie.getName().equals("password"))
{
System.err.println("expiring...");
cookie.setMaxAge(0);
System.err.println("max age: " + cookie.getMaxAge()); // prints a zero
context.getResponse().addCookie(cookie);
}
}
}
Am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks,
Otis
