Question

I have an app built for Android (and hopefully soon iPhone) using Phonegap‘s web interface AppLaud.

It’s working almost perfectly, except that it does not seem to be acknowledging cookie data.

I saw this question, which addresses pretty much the same issue, except the answer is targeted for the Phonegap Eclipse plugin. Even if I understood the answer (which I don’t fully), I don’t see how I would apply it in the AppLaud interface.

How do I get an AppLaud built app to store and receive cookies?

Answer 1

I would try the methods exposed here: Android: How to store cookies? by adding them to the onCreate or init methods of the App.java class of the PhoneGap project.

You should have a file called app.java in your PhoneGap project, probably with this contents or similar:

public class App extends DroidGap {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        super.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/index.html");
    }
}

Modify it to look like this to test the CodeSyncManager example:

public class App extends DroidGap {
    /** Called when the activity is first created. */
    @Override
    public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        CookieSyncManager.getInstance().sync();
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        super.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/index.html");
    }
}
