Hi,

I cannot set cookie header with J# URLConnection class method
setRequestProperty("Cookie", "cookie_name=cookie_value").
Cookie header is empty as received by the server.

I cannot use System.Net.Cookie class since we have a single code base
for Java and J#.

Is it a known bug? Is it going to be fixed in the next release of J#?

Please help.

Anna

why don't you make your own interface/class to abstract that functionality
and under .NET do other thing that under Sun Java? Then your code will still
talk to the same abstraction (OK, still not exactly a single code base)

I suggest you check the MSDN feedback center
