task and cookies, holding state
Hello,
Has anyhone successfully held state in the form of cookies, between
web-related ant tasks. I need to do the following:
* hit a login url that requires username/password passed
* allow a cookie to be set with session information
* make a series of http get(s) to retrieve files, where the previously set
cookie is passed back.
Any suggestions on how I might approach this?
Thanks,
Robert Rice

Also, have a look at Canoo WebTest and its Ant task that might be able
to do this.
You may end up having to write a wrapper over HttpClient or HttpUnit.
Although I would suspect someone has written tasks to do this in some
form or another.

Robert:
Here is how to accomplish this using Perl

But if you want to use Perl you can use encrypted cookies
