Library: HTTP support (OMHTTP) Include: omhttp.xin

Declaration

define function HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes
            read-only   stream   HttpObject
   for      value       stream   CookieName
   into     modifiable  stream   CookieAttrs

Argument definitions

HttpObject

is an HTTP request or HTTP response object (input argument).

CookieName

is the name of the cookie (input argument).

CookieAttrs

is a stream shelf containing the cookie attributes as keyed items. The contents of the shelf are cleared before the cookie attribute values are copied to it. The item key is the cookie name (output argument).

Use HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes to get the names and values of all attributes for the specified cookie in the HTTP request or response object.

Requirements

You must include the following line at the beginning of your OmniMark program:

  include "omhttp.xin"

Usage Notes

The values are returned in the stream argument as keyed items on the shelf. Usually, HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes is called in server programs.

Example

List both request cookie attributes and response cookie attributes.

  ; HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes
  include "omhttp.xin"
  
  process
     local HttpRequest my-Request
     local HttpResponse my-Response
     local stream request-CookieAttrs variable
     local stream response-CookieAttrs variable
  
     HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes my-Request
        for "DocUserId" into request-CookieAttrs
     HttpObjectGetCookieAttributes my-Response
        for "DocUserId" into response-CookieAttrs
  
     output "Request cookie attributes:%n"
     repeat over request-CookieAttrs
        output key of request-CookieAttrs || "=%g(request-CookieAttrs)%n"
     again
     output "%nResponse cookie attributes:%n"
     repeat over response-CookieAttrs
        output key of response-CookieAttrs || "=%g(response-CookieAttrs)"
     again
