I am trying to make multiple connections via threads.
But every connection seems to override the other's cookies, resulting in the connections using the wrong cookies.
inside the threaded class's constructor:
manager = new CookieManager();
manager.setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.ACCEPT_ALL);
CookieHandler.setDefault(manager);
Any way to manage the cookies per thread or per class?
New failed try:
Now every thread is using it's own index, yet they still seem to override each other cookie-wise. Any ideas?
public class threadedCookieStore implements CookieStore, Runnable {
CookieStore[] store = new CookieStore[1000];
int index;
public threadedCookieStore(int new_index) {
index = new_index;
// get the default in memory cookie store
store[index] = new CookieManager().getCookieStore();
// todo: read in cookies from persistant storage
// and add them store
// add a shutdown hook to write out the in memory cookies
Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(this));
}
public void run() {
// todo: write cookies in store to persistent storage
}
public void add(URI uri, HttpCookie cookie) {
store[index].add(uri, cookie);
}
public List<HttpCookie> get(URI uri) {
return store[index].get(uri);
}
public List<HttpCookie> getCookies() {
return store[index].getCookies();
}
public List<URI> getURIs() {
return store[index].getURIs();
}
public boolean remove(URI uri, HttpCookie cookie) {
return store[index].remove(uri, cookie);
}
public boolean removeAll() {
return store[index].removeAll();
}
}
Within the class:
threadedCookieStore cookiestore = new threadedCookieStore(index);
manager = new CookieManager(cookiestore,CookiePolicy.ACCEPT_ALL);
manager.setCookiePolicy(CookiePolicy.ACCEPT_ALL);
CookieHandler.setDefault(manager);
Thanks everyone.
I upvoted all the answers, yet none had a complete solution.
Since google'ing this problem leads to this page here, I'll post the complete solution and accept my own answer:
HowTo:
CookieHandler
to SessionCookieManager
this is based on How to use different cookies for each connection using HttpURLConnection and the CookieManager in Java , nivs describes it correctly, doesn't provide a full solution tho. So most/all credit goes to him, I'm just making the complete HowTo. The SessionCookieManager is based on Java

Note that in my case I changed the default value of CookiePolicy
to ACCEPT_ALL
CookieHandler.setDefault(SessionCookieManager.getInstance());
SessionCookieManager.getInstance().clear();
again: not my idea, just putting it together. All credit goes to Java
