Cookie problem

["droidin.net" <dr...@droidin.net>]

I'm trying to mimic OAuth authentication using HttpClient 4. That requires 2
calls - first I do GET to obtain the form and then I do POST to get security
code. GET works just fine - I get the form, no error. If I input GET URL in
the browser (JS disabled) and submit - everything works, however when I do
HttpPost using the same instance of HttpClient I was using to execute GET I
get an error complaining that my cookies are disabled. Indeed if I clear
cookies in the browser after I execute GET and obtain the form I get the
same error.
I was under impression that if I use the same HttpClient for 2 different
calls (GET & POST) it will retain the cookies. Am I wrong? And if yes - what
should I do to pass cookies to the subsequent POST?

Thanks,

Bo Stone

As long as the same cookie store instance is used for logically related
requests they should share the same logical session and cookies.

You can easily see what cookies are received by the client and sent back
to the origin server by turning on the wire / context logging.
