Get/Set cookies from qml

[ginuerzh]

Hi all:
I am writting a client program. When I login, the server will send some cookies to me in the 'Set-Cookie' header field. I need to get the cookies, because the rest of the request will need them.

I try to get the cookies with xmlhttprequest.getResponseHeader("Set-Cookie"), but failed. I don't want to use C++, so could it be possible?

That's impossible from QML. There is code in quite low level that basically prevents cookies. That code is done because of security issues but is completely irrelevant to QML.

QML is not a browser, it doesn't have any cookies.

imihajlov, what if I want to write browser using QML?

[imihajlov]

If you want to write a browser you should make some low-level c++ components that make cookies and everything available from QML :)

[daliusd]

Exactly. While there is no reason why that shouldn't be possible using pure QML.

P.S. Maybe that's possible using webkit but that's different topic.
