Caching cookies in-memory.

Caching cookies in-memory. To automatically save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the CookieDir property equal to the keyword "memory". Also, set the SaveCookies property = True. If the SendCookies property = True, then any cached cookies are automatically re-sent with subsequent GETs and POSTs.

#  Any string unlocks the component for the 1st 30-days.
success = http.UnlockComponent("Anything for 30-day trial")
if (success != True):
    print http.lastErrorText()

#  To save cookies to an in-memory cache, set the
#  CookieDir equal to "memory".  Also,
#  set the SaveCookies property:
http.put_CookieDir("memory")
http.put_SaveCookies(True)

#  Any methods that do a GET, POST, etc. will save cookies
#  to the CookieDir:

html = http.quickGetStr("https://www.paypal.com/")

#  To fetch the XML cookie(s) for a domain, call GetCookieXml:

xmlStr = http.getCookieXml("paypal.com")

print xmlStr

#  It's content will look something like this:

#  
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
