Quick question about calling Set-Cookie twice in a row

[atd...@gmail.com]

Hello,

As I am writing some tests, I was wondering what should be the correct behavior when http.SetCookie is called twice with cookies of a same name but different values.

For example, what should a user-agent see as the cookie value and hence, what should it return back to the server with the next request?

https://play.golang.org/p/nYDmcFcd8Qj

Many thanks!

In my application, the most recent cookie value with the same name is returned on the next request.

The Go http code calls Header.Add() on your cookie, and Header.Add will concatenate values together. If you want replacement semantics, you'll have to clearout the "Set-Cookie" header on the response, or only add your final cookie.
