Folks,
I taking over some really old code and I'm in the process of converting it over to mp2. I want to be able to use APR::Request::Cookie to create the cookie for the new things I'm doing but I need to create it exactly like CGI.pm is currently doing so the old code will continue to work until I get everthing updated.
I'm hoping someone knows both methods enough to tell me what I'm doing wrong.
The CGI.pm cookie is being created like:
$query->cookie(-name=>'name',-value=>[val1,val2,val3,val4,val5,val6,val7],-expires=>'+5y',-domain=>www.domain.com,-path=>/);
I do my cookies like:
my $packed_cookie = APR::Request::Cookie->new($r->pool,
name => 'name',
value => $cookie_value,
path => '/',
domain => 'www.domain.com',
expires => +5y,
);
$r->err_headers_out->add('Set-Cookie' => $packed_cookie->as_string);
For the value I made an array
@cookie_value = ('val1','val2','val3','val4','val5',val6','val7');
In $packed_cookie I tried using @cookie_value directly, I tried it as an arrayref ($cookie_value), I tried it like [@cookie_value] etc and not matter what I do I can't get the old code to read it via
my ($val1,$val2,$val3,$val4,$val5,$val6,$val7) = $query->cookie(-name=>'name');
The cookie is getting set though, I can view it from within Mozilla. It just isn't being read by CGI.pm
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?
TIA!!
