Here’s a example to access the Cookies at the previous article “simple cookie example”
Java Source
package com.mkyong; import java.io.IOException; import java.io.PrintWriter; import javax.servlet.http.Cookie; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServlet; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest; import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse; public class ServletDemoCookie extends HttpServlet{ public void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws IOException{ response.setContentType("text/html"); PrintWriter pw = response.getWriter(); Cookie[] cookie = request.getCookies(); pw.println("All Cookies in your browsers"); for(Cookie obj : cookie){ if(obj.getName().equals("url")){ pw.println(obj.getName() + " : " + obj.getValue()); break; } } } }
web.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <web-app id="WebApp_ID" version="2.4" xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> <display-name>servletdemo</display-name> <servlet> <servlet-name>PrintCookieServlet</servlet-name> <servlet-class>com.mkyong.ServletDemoCookie</servlet-class> </servlet> <servlet-mapping> <servlet-name>PrintCookieServlet</servlet-name> <url-pattern>/printCookie</url-pattern> </servlet-mapping> </web-app>
The above example will retrieve the cookie information at client site and check whether it’s contains the “url” name.
