I am using the new HttpClient to handle my project's web surfing needs; However, although correctly set, the HttpClient does not save the cookies to the Cookie container and it is always EMPTY.
Code
private CookieContainer _cookieContainer = new CookieContainer();
private HttpClient HttpClient { get; set; }
private HttpClientHandler HttpClientHandler { get; set; }
public Initialize()
{
HttpClientHandler = new HttpClientHandler
{
AllowAutoRedirect = true,
UseCookies = true,
CookieContainer = _cookieContainer
};
HttpClient = new HttpClient(HttpClientHandler);
}
public CookieContainer Cookies
{
get { return _cookieContainer; }
set { _cookieContainer = value; }
}
public void TEST()
{
//This is always empty, although I am sure that the site is saving login cookies
var cookies = Cookies;
}
