1 This class is for objects that represent a "cookie jar" -- that is,
2 a database of all the HTTP cookies that a given LWP::UserAgent
3 object knows about.
5 Cookies are a general mechanism which server side connections can
6 use to both store and retrieve information on the client side of
7 the connection.
8 For more information about cookies refer to Cookie Spec and Cookie
9 Central.
10 This module also implements the new style cookies described in
11 RFC 2965. The two variants of cookies are supposed to be able to
12 coexist happily.
14 Instances of the class HTTP::Cookies are able to store a collection
15 of Set-Cookie2: and Set-Cookie: headers and are able to use this
16 information to initialize Cookie-headers in HTTP::Request objects.
17 The state of a HTTP::Cookies object can be saved in and restored
18 from files.
