The name must conform to RFC 2965. That means it can contain only ASCII alphanumeric characters and cannot contain commas, semicolons, or white space or begin with a $ character. The cookie's name cannot be changed after creation. The value can be anything the server chooses to send. Its value is probably of interest only to the server. The cookie's value can be changed after creation with the`setValue`method. By default, cookies are created according to the RFC 2965 cookie specification. The version can be changed with the`setVersion`method. | Parameters || |---------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `name` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:a`String`specifying the name of the cookie | | `value` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:a`String`specifying the value of the cookie | | Exceptions || |--------------------------------------|------------------------------------------------| | `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` | if the cookie name contains illegal characters | | `java.lang.NullPointerException` | if`name`is`null` | **See Also** - [#setValue](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#setValue(kotlin.String)) - [#setVersion](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#setVersion(kotlin.Int)) ## Public methods ### clone Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun clone(): Any ``` Create and return a copy of this object. | Return || |----------------------------------------------------------------------------|-----------------------------| | [Any](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-any/index.html) | a clone of this HTTP cookie | | Exceptions || |----------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `java.lang.CloneNotSupportedException` | if the object's class does not support the`Cloneable`interface. Subclasses that override the`clone`method can also throw this exception to indicate that an instance cannot be cloned. | ### domainMatches Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` static fun domainMatches(     domain: String!,     host: String! ): Boolean ``` The utility method to check whether a host name is in a domain or not. This concept is described in the cookie specification. To understand the concept, some terminologies need to be defined first: effective host name = hostname if host name contains dot or = hostname.local if not Host A's name domain-matches host B's if: - their host name strings string-compare equal; or - A is a HDN string and has the form NB, where N is a non-empty name string, B has the form .B', and B' is a HDN string. (So, x.y.com domain-matches .Y.com but not Y.com.) A host isn't in a domain (RFC 2965 sec. 3.3.2) if: - The value for the Domain attribute contains no embedded dots, and the value is not .local. - The effective host name that derives from the request-host does not domain-match the Domain attribute. - The request-host is a HDN (not IP address) and has the form HD, where D is the value of the Domain attribute, and H is a string that contains one or more dots. Examples: - A Set-Cookie2 from request-host y.x.foo.com for Domain=.foo.com would be rejected, because H is y.x and contains a dot. - A Set-Cookie2 from request-host x.foo.com for Domain=.foo.com would be accepted. - A Set-Cookie2 with Domain=.com or Domain=.com., will always be rejected, because there is no embedded dot. - A Set-Cookie2 from request-host example for Domain=.local will be accepted, because the effective host name for the request- host is example.local, and example.local domain-matches .local. | Parameters || |----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `domain` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:the domain name to check host name with | | `host` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:the host name in question | | Return || |------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------| | [Boolean](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-boolean/index.html) | `true`if they domain-matches;`false`if not | ### equals Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun equals(other: Any?): Boolean ``` Test the equality of two HTTP cookies.

A zero value causes the cookie to be deleted. | Parameters || |----------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `expiry` | [Long](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-long/index.html):an integer specifying the maximum age of the cookie in seconds; if zero, the cookie should be discarded immediately; otherwise, the cookie's max age is unspecified. | **See Also** - [#getMaxAge](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getMaxAge()) ### setPath Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun setPath(uri: String!): Unit ``` Specifies a path for the cookie to which the client should return the cookie. The cookie is visible to all the pages in the directory you specify, and all the pages in that directory's subdirectories. A cookie's path must include the servlet that set the cookie, for example,*/catalog* , which makes the cookie visible to all directories on the server under*/catalog*. Consult RFC 2965 (available on the Internet) for more information on setting path names for cookies. | Parameters || |-------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `uri` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:a`String`specifying a path | **See Also** - [#getPath](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getPath()) ### setPortlist Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun setPortlist(ports: String!): Unit ``` Specify the portlist of the cookie, which restricts the port(s) to which a cookie may be sent back in a Cookie header. | Parameters || |---------|-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `ports` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:a`String`specify the port list, which is comma separated series of digits | **See Also** - [#getPortlist](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getPortlist()) ### setSecure Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun setSecure(flag: Boolean): Unit ``` Indicates whether the cookie should only be sent using a secure protocol, such as HTTPS or SSL. The default value is`false`. | Parameters || |--------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `flag` | [Boolean](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-boolean/index.html):If`true`, the cookie can only be sent over a secure protocol like HTTPS. If`false`, it can be sent over any protocol. | **See Also** - [#getSecure](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getSecure()) ### setValue Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun setValue(newValue: String!): Unit ``` Assigns a new value to a cookie after the cookie is created. If you use a binary value, you may want to use BASE64 encoding. With Version 0 cookies, values should not contain white space, brackets, parentheses, equals signs, commas, double quotes, slashes, question marks, at signs, colons, and semicolons. Empty values may not behave the same way on all browsers. | Parameters || |------------|---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `newValue` | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html)!:a`String`specifying the new value | **See Also** - [#getValue](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getValue()) ### setVersion Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun setVersion(v: Int): Unit ``` Sets the version of the cookie protocol this cookie complies with. Version 0 complies with the original Netscape cookie specification. Version 1 complies with RFC 2965/2109. | Parameters || |-----|-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | `v` | [Int](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-int/index.html):0 if the cookie should comply with the original Netscape specification; 1 if the cookie should comply with RFC 2965/2109 | | Exceptions || |--------------------------------------|-------------------------| | `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` | if`v`is neither 0 nor 1 | **See Also** - [#getVersion](https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/java/net/HttpCookie#getVersion()) ### toString Added in[API level 9](https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/manifest/uses-sdk-element.html#ApiLevels) ``` fun toString(): String ``` Constructs a cookie header string representation of this cookie, which is in the format defined by corresponding cookie specification, but without the leading "Cookie:" token. | Return || |----------------------------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------| | [String](https://kotlinlang.org/api/latest/jvm/stdlib/kotlin/-string/index.html) | a string form of the cookie.
