Question

I know that a similar question is posted here: Android Session cookies without using CookieManager
However, I can not get it to work.

 URL urlObj = new URL(urlPath);
    conn = (HttpURLConnection) urlObj.openConnection();

    if (urlPath.toLowerCase().startsWith("https:")) {
        initializeHttpsConnection((HttpsURLConnection) conn);
    }
    conn.setRequestMethod("POST");


        conn.setDoInput(true);
        conn.setDoOutput(true);
        conn.connect();
        // Send body data
        os = conn.getOutputStream();
        os.write(bodyData);
        // Must flush and close to make sure all the data is sent.
        os.flush();
        os.close();
        // Get response
        in = conn.getInputStream();
        System.out.println("Initial set of cookies:");

        String cookie = conn.getRequestProperty("Cookie");

// Map> rp = conn.getRequestProperties();
if (cookie != null && cookie.length() > 0)
{
_cookie = cookie;
Log.v(“cookie2”, _cookie);
}

“cookie” is always null.

However, if I do include CookieManger (and run it with 2.3.3+) then cookie has the required value.

try this for http url con:

  while ((headerfields = connection.getHeaderField(i)) != null) {
          String key = connection.getHeaderFieldKey(i);
          if (key.equalsIgnoreCase("SET-COOKIE")) {
         ssss= (((key==null) ? "" : key + ": ") + headerfields);}
          i++;

          }
