How to keep session with HttpUrlConnection?

Question

I'm using HttpUrlConnection to perform some http request and I need to keep a session alive.

I read the doc which just say to add

CookieManager cookieManager = new CookieManager();  
CookieHandler.setDefault(cookieManager);

but it does not say where.

Should I add this every time I create a HttpUrlConnection and do a request? I can't find any example...

CookieHandler.setDefault() sets the system-wide cookie handler. You should call it once.

Ok, I put it on the `onCreate` of a class extending `Application` – jul Jul 18 '13 at 12:58
