Adds a cookie to the current Response headers.

Cookies are used to store small pieces of persistent information for the server to remember users by. Typically these values should be kept very small and hold only key values to look up additional information about a user. Cookie space is limited in browsers and all applications running on a given site share the cookie space, so don't abuse use of it.

For more info on cookies and values you can look at the MDN topic on Set-Cookie.

Setting Simple Cookies without Options

Response.AddCookie("cookieName","CookieValue")

There are additional parameters that allow you set expiration and cookie options, but if you need to set extra optoins we recommend you use the more comprehensive wwCookie parameter to set the options you need.

Using wwCookie to set complex cookies

The recommended way to add a cookie is:

loCookie = CREATEOBJECT("wwCookie")
loCookie.CookieName = "testvalue"
loCookie.Value = "NewValue"
loCookie.Expires = DATE() + 10
loCookie.SameSite = "None"
loCookie.Secure = .T.
loCookie.HttpOnly = .T.

* lcCookieVal = loCookie.ToString()  && returns the generated cookie text

Response.AddCookie(loCookie)   && add the Cookie to the current Response

Note that many of the properties are optional - only CookieName and Value are required. For more information on the values to set see that wwCookie class.

o.AddCookie(toCookie | 
            tcCookie,tcValue,
            tcPath,tcExpire,
            tlHttpOnly, tlSecure)
