HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft(3)NAME
HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft - access to Microsoft cookies files
SYNOPSIS
use LWP;
use HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft;
use Win32::TieRegistry(Delimiter => "/");
my $cookies_dir = $Registry->
{"CUser/Software/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Explorer/Shell Folders/Cookies"};
$cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft->new(
file => "$cookies_dir\index.dat",
'delayload' => 1,
);
my $browser = LWP::UserAgent->new;
$browser->cookie_jar( $cookie_jar );
DESCRIPTION
This is a subclass of "HTTP::Cookies" which loads Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.x and 6.x for Windows (MSIE) cookie files.
See the documentation for HTTP::Cookies.
METHODS
The following methods are provided:
$cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft->new;
The constructor takes hash style parameters. In addition to the regular HTTP::Cookies parameters, HTTP::Cookies::Microsoft recognizes
the following:
delayload: delay loading of cookie data until a request
is actually made. This results in faster
runtime unless you use most of the cookies
since only the domain's cookie data
is loaded on demand.
CAVEATS
Please note that the code DOESN'T support saving to the MSIE cookie file format.
