While implementing some web application with session support, I noticed that there has been a change in SstWAS40SessionManager>>#cookieFromRequestHeaderString: which renders it nonfunctional. Someone replaced the "cookie value subStrings: $:" with "cookie value subStrings" which splits the cookie value on whitespace, not on $:.
We've implemented a fix, but it would be nice if this would be integrated into the next release.

Cheers,
Hans-Martin

Hi Hans-Martin,

Thanks for reporting this. You are correct.
We will include the fix that changes this back to "subStrings: $:" in VAST 15 as development ticket 74315 [Incorrect parsing of session id from cookie in SstWAS40SessionManager>>#cookieFromRequestHeaderString:]

Best regards
Johan
