Can anyone else verify this issue in 10.11?
NSHTTPCookieStorage *cookieStorage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage];
NSLog(@"cookieStorage count is %lu", [[cookieStorage cookies] count]);
When I run this in El Capitan, cookieStorage comes up (null) where I get the complete set of cookies in 10.10 and earlier. Is anyone else doing anything with cookies in 10.11 - this seems like a pretty significant bug?
EDIT with answer:
Not (yet) documented in the NSHTTPCookieStorage class reference is the new method for 10.11:
//access to Safari cookie storage
[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedCookieStorageForGroupContainerIdentifier:@"Cookies"]
Each application has its own cookie storage in 10.11. With thanks to the answer to this question: stringWithContentsOfURL cookie jar in El Capitan
Some more info in the WWDC 15 session on Networking with NSURLSession.
It turns out 10.11 to sandbox every individual app like iOS. Here is my solution.
// To read cookies from Safari
NSHTTPCookieStorage *storage = [NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedCookieStorageForGroupContainerIdentifier:@"Cookies"];
// To write cookies to the app
for (NSHTTPCookie *aCookies in [storage cookies]){
[[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] setCookie:aCookies];
}
Hope this would be helpful.
