Using Web Services with MATLAB Cookie issue

Question

1 个投票

Hi,

I am trying to use the web service http://www.cadec-online.com/API.asmx, but the service uses cookies for authentication and sessions.

Matlab documentation does not say anything about cookies.

Is there anyway to tell Matlab to use cookies?

I am able to use this service in c# really easy:

            API.API api = new API.API();
            api.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();
            api.LogIn("user", "pass");
            String[][] ls = api.Laminae();
            foreach (String[] l in ls)
            {
                Console.WriteLine(l[0] + "  " + l[1]);
            }
            api.Logout();
            Console.ReadLine();

Note the api.CookieContainer = new System.Net.CookieContainer();, this is the way to tell c# to accept cookies. Is there a way to do that in Matlab?

Best

I found the solution.

ASP.NET was not sending the cookie because the browser capabilities object for the java user agent Mozilla/5.0 (Java 1.6.0_17; Windows 7 6.1 amd64; en_US) ICEbrowser/v6_0_2 returns false in the Cookies field.

I created a new java.broser file and put it in the App_Browsers directory. I redeployed the application and it worked! ASP.Net sends the cookie to Matlab now.

What I had to do next is to modify the Matlab Soap function so it would receive and resend the cookie everytime. I posted the solution to that in http://www.cadec-online.com/Help/API.aspx#Matlab

I will report this issue to Matlab now.
