![]() | IsReadOnly | Gets a value that indicates whether the CookieCollection is read-only. |
![]() | IsSynchronized | Gets a value that indicates whether access to the CookieCollection is thread safe. |
![]() | Item | Gets the cookie with the specified name from the collection. |
![]() | SyncRoot | Gets an object that you can use to synchronize access to the CookieCollection. |
| Name | Description | |

![]() | Add(Cookie) | Adds the specified Cookie to the collection. |
![]() | Add(CookieCollection) | Adds the contents of the specified CookieCollection to this collection. |
![]() | CopyTo | Copies the contents of this CookieCollection to the specified array, starting at the specified index. |
![]() | Equals(Object) | Determines whether the specified Object is equal to the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | Finalize | Allows an object to try to free resources and perform other cleanup operations before the Object is reclaimed by garbage collection. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetEnumerator | Gets an enumerator to iterate through the CookieCollection. |
![]() | GetHashCode | Serves as a hash function for a particular type. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | GetType | Gets the Type of the current instance. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | MemberwiseClone | Creates a shallow copy of the current Object. (Inherited from Object.) |
![]() | ToString | Returns a string that represents the current object. (Inherited from Object.) |

The following example shows how to retrieve the CookieCollection from a response and write them to an isolated storage file.
Private Sub ReadCallback(asynchronousResult As IAsyncResult) Dim request As HttpWebRequest = DirectCast(asynchronousResult.AsyncState, HttpWebRequest) Dim response As HttpWebResponse = DirectCast(request.EndGetResponse(asynchronousResult), HttpWebResponse) Using isf As IsolatedStorageFile = IsolatedStorageFile.GetUserStoreForApplication() Using isfs As IsolatedStorageFileStream = isf.OpenFile("CookieExCookies", FileMode.OpenOrCreate, FileAccess.Write) Using sw As New StreamWriter(isfs) For Each cookieValue As Cookie In response.Cookies sw.WriteLine("Cookie: " & cookieValue.ToString()) Next sw.Close() End Using End Using End Using End Sub
