@Deprecated
public interface CookieSpec

Deprecated.

Jakarta Commons HttpClient 3.x is deprecated in the Jenkins project. It is not recommended to use it in any new code. Instead, use HTTP client API plugins as a dependency in your code. E.g. Apache HttpComponents Client API 4.x Plugin or Async HTTP Client Plugin.

Defines the cookie management specification.

Cookie management specification must define

• rules of parsing "Set-Cookie" header
• rules of validation of parsed cookies
• formatting of "Cookie" header

for a given host, port and path of origin

Since:

2.0
