Trying to Get HTTP Header

[kiranpuranik]

Hi All,

I am trying to access a HTTP header. but I am not able to succeed. I am trying to access the "Set-Cookie" header sent by my server.

RHTTPResponse resp = aTransaction.Response();
RStringPool strP = aTransaction.Session().StringPool();
RHTTPHeaders hdr = resp.GetHeaderCollection();
RStringF fieldNameStr = strP.OpenFStringL(_L8("Set-Cookie"));
THTTPHdrVal fieldVal;

if (hdr.GetField(fieldNameStr,0,fieldVal) == KErrNone)
{
RStringF fieldValStr = strP.StringF(fieldVal.StrF());
TDesC8& val = (TDesC8&)fieldValStr.DesC();
HBufC* buf = HBufC::NewL(100);
buf->Des().Copy(val);
delete buf;
}

Now .. the "buf" I am getting is nowhere what my server is sending .. its sending me a cookie .. which is a very long string of alphanumeric characters .. but what I get is "Cookie" . .a single word ..

can someone please find the issue in the above code.

thanks a lot in advance.

..

Hi.
Try this.

RHTTPResponse resp = aTransaction.Response();
RHTTPHeaders respHeader = resp .GetHeaderCollection();
HTTPHdrFieldIter itr = respHeader.Fields();
RStringPool strPool = aTransaction.Session().StringPool();
itr .First();

//now iterate thru the entire header and keep collecting data

//once you have the entire header info in a descriptor may be parse it.
