For some reason, CookieManager sometimes loses the session variable when I open a camera intent and return from it. This doesn't happen all the time but it does happen often. I can confirm that the session variable is being lost because my backend web server is complaining about it.
This is my code that I put on my MainApplication extends Application class in the onCreate() method.
CookieManager cookieManager = new CookieManager(null, CookiePolicy.ACCEPT_ALL);
CookieHandler.setDefault(cookieManager);
I would appreciate if anyone can give me some insight into what is happening.
Update:
I tried storing the cookies using the following code but it did not work!
public static void GetCookies(Context context){
SharedPreferences prefs = QuickFunctions.getPreferences(context);
CookieManager ckManager = (CookieManager) CookieHandler.getDefault();
CookieStore ckStore = ckManager.getCookieStore();
List<URI> uriList=ckStore.getURIs();
List<HttpCookie> cks = ckStore.getCookies();
boolean sessionExists=false;
for (URI uri : uriList) {
if (uri.getHost().contains("testsite.ca")){
sessionExists=true;
}
}
if (sessionExists==false){
if (prefs.contains("sessionURI") && prefs.contains("cookieName") && prefs.contains("cookieValue")){
URI intuchURI = URI.create(prefs.getString("sessionURI", "defaultString"));
HttpCookie ck = new HttpCookie( prefs.getString("cookieName", "defaultString"), prefs.getString("cookieValue", "defaultString"));
ckStore.add(intuchURI,ck);
}
}
}
public static void SaveCookies(Context context){
SharedPreferences prefs = QuickFunctions.getPreferences(context);
Editor edit=prefs.edit();
CookieManager ckManager = (CookieManager) CookieHandler.getDefault();
CookieStore ckStore = ckManager.getCookieStore();
List<URI> uriList=ckStore.getURIs();
for (URI uri : uriList) {
if (uri.getHost().contains("testsite.ca")){
edit.putString("sessionURI", uri.toString());
List<HttpCookie> cks = ckStore.get(uri);
for (HttpCookie ck : cks) {
if (ck.toString().contains("sessionid")){
edit.putString("cookieName",ck.getName());
edit.putString("cookieValue",ck.getValue());
}
}
}
}
edit.commit();
}
Thanks!
