Android Webview: How to retrieve the expiry date from a cookie

Question

In Android, is there a way we can check if a cookie used by webkit has expired? CookieManager.getCookie(url) doesn't have the expiry dates.

Answer 1

Well you have to retrieve the cookie first to a Cookie ( org.apache.http.cookie.Cookie) object and then use the "

isExpired(Date date)

" that returns true if this cookie has expired.

you can also test the date by using

getExpiryDate()

.
