Questions tagged [nshttpcookie]

An NSHTTPCookie object represents an HTTP cookie. It’s an immutable object initialized from a dictionary containing the cookie attributes.

Two versions of cookies are supported:

  • Version 0: This version refers to “traditional” or “old-style” cookies, the original cookie format defined by Netscape. The majority of cookies encountered are in this format.
  • Version 1: This version refers to cookies as defined in RFC 2965, HTTP State Management Mechanism.
