1610373 - nsICookieManager should return cookies created after a certain date

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Privacy: Anti-Tracking, enhancement, P2)

Description

[Erica Wright [:ewright]]

nsICookieManager cookies() provides all cookies. For cookie purging cookies, we want to be able to fetch cookies created after a certain date, preferably in order by date.

Services.cookies.cookies also gives too much information, we only need the host name.

It seems a bug in cookie purging. Erica, what do you think?

Comment 9

[Andrea Marchesini [:baku]]

Is actually this new method already in use?

Comment 10

[Johann Hofmann [:johannh]]

Not in use AFAIK, and purging is not turned on yet. Seems strange that this bug should have caused any regressions. Wrong regression range?
