Kevin,
I did look up all these trails, and per se, I do know how to use
response.addCookie (not "set-cookie", Sun advises not to use this directly)
, request.getCookies, request.getSession(true), session.getValue("name")
etc. But this is only if I am using HTML as the front-end, not Applets.
My problem is with the exact sequence of statements. All I know is, to pass
values between Applet and Servlet, you stream serialized objects. So when
you need to pass cookies, how do you set it up at both ends, since cookies
are not serialized objects? How do you pass the cookies back and forth?
Second question, some cookies are required to be persistent at the clients
end (e.g. to remember the user login and password). Can this be managed
using Applets? If so how? Do you need to use private/public keys and policy
tool?
Thanks,
-Shital
