Cookie (Apache Tomcat 8.5.57 API Documentation)

org.apache.tomcat.util.http.parser

## Class Cookie

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.tomcat.util.http.parser.Cookie

-     public class Cookie
      extends Object

  Cookie header parser based on RFC6265 and RFC2109.

  The parsing of cookies using RFC6265 is more relaxed that the specification in the following ways:

  - Values 0x80 to 0xFF are permitted in cookie-octet to support the use of UTF-8 in cookie values as used by HTML 5.
  - For cookies without a value, the '=' is not required after the name as some browsers do not sent it.

  The parsing of cookies using RFC2109 is more relaxed that the specification in the following ways:

  - Values for the path attribute that contain a / character do not have to be quoted even though / is not permitted in a token.

  Implementation note:
  This class has been carefully tuned to ensure that it has equal or better performance than the original Netscape/RFC2109 cookie parser. Before committing and changes, ensure that the TesterCookiePerformance unit test continues to give results within 1% for the old and new parsers.
