Hi
With Tomcat 4.0 I have developed a taglib for visit cookies. The
relevant part of the code is very similar to what you sent:
HttpSession session=pageContext.getSession();
HttpServletRequest
request=(HttpServletRequest)pageContext.getRequest();
HttpServletResponse
response=(HttpServletResponse)pageContext.getResponse();
if(session.isNew()) {
String cValue=getCookie(request.getCookies(),
name).getValue(); // getCookie is an auxiliary function
session.setAttribute(visit, cValue);
}
Cookie cookie=new Cookie(name, getTimestamp());
cookie.setMaxAge(expires);
response.addCookie(cookie);
(this code belongs to a tag libray)
And it seems to work without problems.
