Hi Karl,

Could you attach the complete code to reproduce the problem ?
                
> There seems to be no way to get HttpClient to include cookies from a custom 
> store

>                 Key: HTTPCLIENT-1267
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HTTPCLIENT-1267
>             Project: HttpComponents HttpClient
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: HttpCookie
>    Affects Versions: 4.2.2
>            Reporter: Karl Wright
>
> In the port of ManifoldCF from commons-httpclient to httpcomponents, we 
> discovered a problem or maybe a design flaw with how cookies are handled.
> What we're trying to do is to follow a certain series of html pages, and 
> record the cookies after that is done, and use exactly those cookies for a 
> subsequent series of pages.  So I have code that looks something like this:
> {code}
> DefaultHttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
> ...
> CookieStore cs = new BasicCookieStore();
> cs.addCookie(...);  // for each saved cookie
> httpClient.setCookieStore(cs);
> HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet(...);
> HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpget);
> Cookie[] cookiesToSave = httpClient.getCookieStore().getCookies();
> [save the cookies aside]
> {code}
> What happens when I do this against a page that sets a cookie, is I get a 
> perfectly reasonable cookie, and save it.  For the next page, the code to add 
> the cookie to the custom store then seems to work fine as well.  But when I 
> watch what is transmitted for the request (via header logging) I see no 
> Cookie header being sent, and indeed the cookie seems to be lost.
> Similar logic was done with HttpState in commons-httpclient, and worked 
> perfectly there against the same website.
> I have not yet tried the HttpContext approach for implementing this - I may 
> try that while awaiting an answer to this ticket, but the above seems like it 
> ought to work, according to the documentation.
