Example 1

import java.net.HttpCookie;
public class JavaHttpCookieExample1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
	 
    	HttpCookie object = new HttpCookie("Java", "1"); 
    	// Describes the purpose of the cookie.
    	object.setComment("This is for tutorial purpose.");
    	//Returns the comment which describes the purpose of the cookie.
       System.out.println("Comment: "+object.getComment());
       //Specifies the domain within which the cookie can be presented.
    	object.setDomain("javatpoint.com");
    	//Returns the domain name set for the given cookie.
    	System.out.println("The required domain is: "+object.getDomain());
    	//Sets the maximum age of the cookie in seconds.
    	object.setMaxAge(2000);
    	System.out.println("The maximum age is given as: "+object.getMaxAge());
    	//Returns the name of the cookie.
    	System.out.println("Name for the cookie is given as: "+object.getName());
    	//Returns the hash code of the given HTTP cookie.
    	System.out.println("The hash code for the given cookie is given as: "+object.hashCode());
	}

	  cookie.setDiscard(true);
	  //Returns the discard attribute of the cookie.
	  System.out.println("The discard attribute is given as: "+cookie.getDiscard());
	  //Sets the version of the cookie protocol.
	  cookie.setVersion(1);
	  //Returns the version of the protocol which the cookie compiles with.
