IESetProtectedModeCookie function

Calls the standard InternetSetCookieEx from a higher-integrity user context. Creates a cookie with a specified name that is associated with a specified URL.

Syntax

C++


HRESULT IESetProtectedModeCookie(
  _In_ LPCWSTR lpszURL,
  _In_ LPCWSTR lpszCookieName,
  _In_ LPWSTR  pszCookieData,
  _In_ DWORD   dwFlags
);

Parameters

lpszURL [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the URL for which the cookie should be set.

lpszCookieName [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the name to associate with this cookie. If this pointer is NULL, then no name is associated with the cookie.

pszCookieData [in]

A pointer to a null-terminated string that contains the data to be associated with the new cookie.

dwFlags [in]

Flags that control how the function sets cookie data:

INTERNET_COOKIE_THIRD_PARTY (0x10): Indicates that the cookie being set is a third-party cookie.
INTERNET_FLAG_RESTRICTED_ZONE (0x00020000): Indicates that the cookie being set is associated with an untrusted site.

Return value

If this function succeeds, it returns S_OK. Otherwise, it returns an HRESULT error code.

Remarks

To create a persistent cookie, add an expires name/value pair to the cookie data. The format of the value must be DAY, DD-MMM-YYYY HH:MM:SS GMT. DAY is a three-letter abbreviation for the day of the week, DD is the day of the month, MMM is a three-letter abbreviation for the month, YYYY is the year, and HH:MM:SS is the time of day in 24-hour format.

Examples

The following example shows how to use the IESetProtectedModeCookie method to create a persistent cookie in the protected mode cookie store.

C++


HRESULT hr = E_FAIL;
TCHAR szTime[100];
TCHAR szCookieVal[MAX_PATH];
COleDateTime oDate;
SYSTEMTIME systime;

SecureZeroMemory(szCookieVal, sizeof(TCHAR) * MAX_PATH);
oDate = COleDateTime::GetCurrentTime();
//set expiry to a day.
oDate+= COleDateTimeSpan(1, 0, 0, 0);
if (oDate.GetAsSystemTime(systime))
{
  if (InternetTimeFromSystemTime(&systime, INTERNET_RFC1123_FORMAT, szTime, MAX_PATH))
  {
    if (SUCCEEDED(StringCchPrintf(szCookieVal, MAX_PATH,L"%s;expires=%s", L"CookieValue",szTime)))
    {
      hr = IESetProtectedModeCookie(L"http://contoso.com", L"CookieName", szCookieVal, NULL);
      if (hr != S_OK)
      {
        hr = HRESULT_FROM_WIN32(GetLastError());
      }
    }
  }
}
return hr;
