<p>The standard implementation of <strong>CookieProcessor</strong> is
|
||
|
|
<code>org.apache.tomcat.util.http.Rfc6265CookieProcessor</code>.</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>This cookie processor is based on RFC6265 with the following changes to
|
||
|
|
support better interoperability:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>Values 0x80 to 0xFF are permitted in cookie-octet to support the use
|
||
|
|
of UTF-8 in cookie values as used by HTML 5.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>For cookies without a value, the '=' is not required after the name as
|
||
|
|
some browsers do not sent it.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<p>The RFC 6265 cookie processor is generally more lenient than the legacy
|
||
|
|
cookie parser. In particular:</p>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
<ul>
|
||
|
|
<li>The '<code>=</code>' and '<code>/</code>' characters are always
|
||
|
|
permitted in a cookie value.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>Name only cookies are always permitted.</li>
|
||
|
|
<li>The cookie header is always preserved.</li>
|
||
|
|
</ul>
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

additional attributes.</p>

<p>This is the legacy cookie parser based on RFC6265, RFC2109 and RFC2616.

It implements a strict interpretation of the cookie specifications. Due to

various interoperability issues with browsers not all strict behaviours

are enabled by default and additional options are available to further
