Jakarta Commons HTTP Client problem

Question

Hi,
This one's for anyone with knowledge of the Jakarta Commons HTTPClient 2.0 Beta 2.
I'm trying to make an HTTP GET request with all the Cookies on one header line.
For some reason the request is built with each cookie on a separate line.
I've looked at the source for HttpMethodBase where I saw that this depends on whether it is in strictMode. So, I set it to strictMode first.
Doesn't seem to make any difference though.
Here's my code. Can someone tell me where I've gone wrong.
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
HttpState state = client.getState();
state.setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.COMPATIBILITY);
state.addCookie(new Cookie("www.foo.com","foo","1","/",null,true));
state.addCookie(new Cookie("www.foo.com","baa","2","/",null,true));
GetMethod method = new GetMethod(url);
method.setStrictMode(true);
int statusCode = client.executeMethod(method);
// ...Hope someone can help.
Thanks.

Answer 1

after reading through the source it appears that HttpClient.strictMode overrides whatever the setting is in HttpMethod.strictMode.
see HttpClient.executeMethod(HostConfiguration hostConfiguration,
HttpMethod method)
in this method is ....
method.setStrictMode(strictMode);
so try this in your code instead of method.setStrictMode(true).
client.setStrictMode( true );
