Re: Perl Authentication Handler and Cookie Issue

[Sumit Shah <suppressed>]

I printed out the contents of the Cookie attribute in the request header 
and I can see the cookie present in the header. I read all the contents 
into a hash and then try to check for its existence. The 
if(exists($hashMap{'SSOTokenID'})) condition fails. Does it have 
anything to do with data types? How can I check for its existence?

Here is the code snippet:

     my $cookie = $r->headers_in->{'Cookie'};
     my @cookieArray = split(";",$cookie);

     my %hashMap;
     my $cookieItem;
     foreach $cookieItem (@cookieArray){
               my @subArray = split("=",$cookieItem);
               my $key = $subArray[0];
               my $value = $subArray[1];
               $hashMap{$key}=$value;
     }
    my $k;
    my $v;
     while ( ($k,$v) = each %hashMap ) {
           $log->error("$k => $v");
     }
    
     my $token;
     if (exists($hashMap{'SSOTokenID'})) {
       # it exists
       $log->error("Token found");
       $token=$hashMap{'SSOTokenID'};
    }else {
       $log->error("Token NOT Found");
    }

Thanks
Sumit
