While developing a WMS application for Windows CE I've encountered a problem with lack of cookies support in .NET Compact Framework. Doing my research I've found those two workarounds for the problem:
The thing is: my boss insists that I decompile the .NET 4.5 libraries, take the CookieContainer and it's associated classes and reimplement those for the Compact Framework.
The workarounds I've found both base on a simple concept of catching the cookies contained in the http header then storing them in a string and later sending them back to the server, all using the WebRequest and WebResponse overrides.
The CookieContainer is a lot more complex than this.
Question is: what could I gain going with the decompile-and-reimplement CookieContainer approach and is it really worth it?
