Air + Ipad + RemoteObject problem with session cookies

Question

I am making Air version for IPad of a Flex application.
My flex application needs session from an secured enterprise proxy, without that session none remoteObject requests can pass the proxy and reach blazeDS.
My solution for flex works fine: calling an enterprise  servlet at application´s startup to obtain a cookie session. I use a POST call to the servlet using URLRequest (sending the user and password parameters), the servlet responds with  a message with a session cookie, and from that point, without me having to code anything more, my flex application get that cookie with the session that automatically is loaded in my browser cookie stack, and that transparently is used from all my subsequents remoteObjects calls in the flex application.
In my Adobe Air Ipad version, this just does not work, the session or is not storaged or is not attached with subsequent remoteObjects requests.
- I´m forcing request.manageCookies = true
- I´m working with the IOS simulator (Is there any difference for cookies with a real Ipad device?)
- I´m using Flex 4.6.0, Air 3.5, IOS 6, Ipad 3, BlazeDS 4.0, Java 6 BackEnd.
.. What´s the problem/difference with Air+Ipad from the flex version?

Answer 1

Hi BalusC ,
Thanks for your detailed response. I have a question about this comment you noted..
"Terrible. Just keep the bean request scoped. "
I changed the bean to request and now have this issue.
            <rich:dataGrid id="membersInZipcode" value="#{membersInZipcode.arrayListOfSearch4Member}"
                        var="membersInZipcode" columns="5" elements="20">                       
            <f:facet name="footer">
                <rich:datascroller></rich:datascroller>
            </f:facet>
        </rich:dataGrid>
        </h:form>  I am using a request bean to hold the search parms that loads the bean. This works great.
The problem is when I use the rich:datascroller for the next page.
It goes back to the bean and the request scope bean is empty. This holds the search values.
How do I put this back into the request after each process??
Question 2..
"Those settings only applies on the current request, i.e. the JSP file itself. Images are obtained by separate and independent requests. You need to set the headers on those requests as well. You can use a filter for this."
I have never set a filter ...how do I do it? Do you have a link for an example of this filter setup?
Thanks Again
Phil
