[jetty-dev] About cookie version in the response

[Xialin Zhu <xzhu@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I am an engineer from LinkedIn, and we are currently having different test result between Jetty 6 and Jetty 8, but I could not find any direct information from Internet:

In Jetty 8, we found that some of the cookies in the response are wrapped by double quotes which will fail the tests, and those cookies are all version 0 cookies though we use setVersion(1) when we create it on the server. By digging into the library we found this is because “Set-Cookie” field in the header lacks “version=1” part. We don’t have this issue in Jetty 6. It seems that you have such code in HttpFields that set the cookie version in Jetty 6:

if (version > 0)

{

  buf.append(";Version=");

  buf.append(version);

}

However this piece of code is gone in Jetty 8, and it makes us always getting version 0 cookies.

Is it a known issue of Jetty 8, or are we missing anything? Any help is appreciated!

Thanks,

Tony
