Java android – CookieHandler – How do I keep cookies after closing the application?

To persist cookies after each request in HttpURLConnection, you should add CookieHandler: on the application you start

with

CookieManager cookieManager = new CookieManager();
CookieHandler.setDefault(cookieManager);

But when the application closes and opens again, the cookies are empty …
So how are cookies stored after closing?

For example, save them in a SharedPreferences or file and retrieve them after opening….

I tried to get them to use the CookieStore, but that didn’t work :….

Save:

Settings.Save(c, TAG, cookieManager.getCookieStore().getCookies().toString());

Load:

String load = Settings.Load(c, TAG);
if (load != null) {
    for (HttpCookie hc : HttpCookie.parse(load)) {
        cookieManager.getCookieStore().add(new URI(Data.domain), hc);
    }
}

Thanks…

The default CookieStore does not save anything to disk, you need to implement one that can be saved. This is an example implementation saves cookies directly to SharedPreferences.
