------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-- This is a package to interface a GNAT program with a Web server via the
-- Common Gateway Interface (CGI). It exports services to deal with Web
-- cookies (piece of information kept in the Web client software).
-- The complete CGI Cookie specification can be found in the RFC2109 at:
-- http://www.ics.uci.edu/pub/ietf/http/rfc2109.txt
-- This package builds up data tables whose memory is not released. A CGI
-- program is expected to be a short lived program and so it is adequate to
-- have the underlying OS free the program on exit.
package GNAT.CGI.Cookie is
-- The package will initialize itself by parsing the HTTP_Cookie runtime
-- CGI environment variable during elaboration but we do not want to raise
-- an exception at this time, so the exception Data_Error is deferred and
-- will be raised when calling any services below (except for Ok).
Cookie_Not_Found : exception;
-- This exception is raised when a specific parameter is not found
procedure Put_Header
(Header : String := Default_Header;
Force : Boolean := False);
-- Output standard CGI header by default. This header must be returned
-- back to the server at the very beginning and will be output only for
-- the first call to Put_Header if Force is set to False. This procedure
-- also outputs the Cookies that have been defined. If the program uses
-- the GNAT.CGI.Put_Header service, cookies will not be set.
--
-- Cookies are passed back to the server in the header, the format is:
--
-- Set-Cookie: =; comment=; domain=;
-- max_age=; path=[; secured]
function Ok return Boolean;
-- Returns True if the CGI cookie environment is valid and False otherwise.
-- Every service used when the CGI environment is not valid will raise the
-- exception Data_Error.
function Count return Natural;
-- Returns the number of cookies received by the CGI
function Value
(Key : String;
Required : Boolean := False) return String;
-- Returns the cookie value associated with the cookie named Key. If cookie
-- does not exist, returns an empty string if Required is False and raises
-- the exception Cookie_Not_Found otherwise.
function Value (Position : Positive) return String;
-- Returns the value associated with the cookie number Position of the CGI.
-- It raises Cookie_Not_Found if there is no such cookie (i.e. Position >
-- Count)
function Exists (Key : String) return Boolean;
-- Returns True if the cookie named Key exist and False otherwise
function Key (Position : Positive) return String;
-- Returns the key associated with the cookie number Position of the CGI.
-- It raises Cookie_Not_Found if there is no such cookie (i.e. Position >
-- Count)
