Re: [Viking-devel] google cookies

2010-04-13 Thread Robert Norris


 I find that opening viking on a file with osm, terraserver topos and
 terraserver aerieals results in a file being writting in
 ~/.viking/cookies.txt

 
 # Netscape HTTP Cookie File
 # http://curl.haxx.se/rfc/cookie_spec.html
 # This file was generated by libcurl! Edit at your own risk.

 .google.com TRUE / FALSE 1334106458 PREF ID=[redacted]
 


 Why is this? I wasn't trying to configure anything to talk to google,
 and I didn't decide to take/store/resend a cookie.

 I see it it curl_download.c:get_cookie_file, but there are no comments
 explaining why.

I was surprised to see this too.
 
I presume it might be used if one uses the 'Goto address/place' feature with 
Google, however it shouldn't need to connect to google until really necessary.
