Ability to ignore (reject) cookies altogether





------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-10-23 06:22 -------
I wonder whether cookie policy is the right place to address this
particular issue. I'm using the HTTP Client as an implementation
of RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1), and cookies are specified in RFC 2965.
I'd prefer a way to switch off cookie parsing altogether, like I
can switch off automatic authentication or redirect handling.
Preferably with the cookie parsing logic exposed to the programmer,
for cases when the application decides to parse some or all cookies
anyway.
Currently, I'm using a derived HttpState implementation that overrides
all setters to no-ops. The primary reason for this is that my HttpState
object becomes read-only and the same object can be used by various
threads simultaneously without interferences.
But I guess that's 3.0 talk. For 2.1, the 'reject-all-damn-cookies'
policy sounds like an appropriate solution that can be implemented
with little effort.
