I have always programmed response cookies as new cooie objects rather than
sharing references with the request cookie. Hmm in fact the request cookie
will be a "Cookie" header whereas the response cookie is of the form
"Set-Cookie". I think this will fix your problem:
Cookies[] ca = request.getCookies();
if( ca != null ) {
for( int i = 0; i < ca.length; i++ ) {
Cookie c = new Cookie( ca[i].getName(), ca[i].getValue() );
c.setmaxAge( 0 );
response.addCookie( c );
}
}
Hope this helps...
