[jira] [Created] (HTTPCLIENT-1327) BrowserCompatSpec double quotes cookie value when cookie has "expires" attribute

Francois-Xavier Bonnet created HTTPCLIENT-1327:
--------------------------------------------------

             Summary: BrowserCompatSpec double quotes cookie value when cookie has "expires" attribute
                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1327
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1327
             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: HttpClient
    Affects Versions: 4.3 Alpha1
            Reporter: Francois-Xavier Bonnet
            Priority: Minor


When receiving this header:
Set-Cookie: test="test"; Version=1; Max-Age=1000; Expires=Mon, 11-Feb-2013 10:39:19 GMT; Path=/ 

If you parse and format again the cookie you get:
Cookie: test="\"test\""

I tested with the last versions of Firefox, Chrome and Internet Explorer and you always get:
Cookie: test="test"

You can easily get such a cookie with Tomcat:
        Cookie tomcatCookie = new Cookie("test", "test");
        tomcatCookie.setPath("/");
        tomcatCookie.setMaxAge(1000);
        response.addCookie(tomcatCookie);

The problem is that BrowserCompatSpec considers it as a Netscape style cookie because of expires attribute so the quotes are considered as being part of the value.
