Implements a collection item for HTTP Server Cookies.

TIdServerCookie = class(TIdCookieRFC2109)

TIdServerCookie is a TIdCookieRFC2109 descendant that implements a collection item for a TIdServerCookies collection. TIdServerCookie is created and used by TIdHTTPServer in an HTTP request or response.

TIdServerCookie differs from TIdCookieRFC2109 by reinstituting use of the Expires property, instead of MaxAge, to indicate when Cookie data is no longer valid. There is many web browsers which does not support Max-Age as defined in RFC2109 and simply ignore it.

Maintains attribute names and values for the Server Cookie.

procedure AddAttribute(const Attribute: String; const Value: String);

Cookie attribute name to be updated.

Cookie attribute value to be updated.

AddAttribute is a procedure that allows the server Cookie to correctly maintain the Path and Domain properties based on Cookie headers received in an HTTP client request. AddAttribute checks the Cookie attribute named in Value for the presense of the special Value '$PATH' or '$DOMAIN'. When Attribute contains either of these special Cookie headers, the data in Value is assigned to the corresponding Path or Domain property.

Constructor for the object instance.

constructor Create(ACollection: TCollection); override;

Create is the constructor for the object instance. Create calls the inherited Create method using the collection that owns the collection item specified in ACollection. Create also set value for the internal version representation to cvNetscape.
