//
// The HtCookieJar class stores/retrieves cookies.
// It's an abstract class though, which has to be the interface
// for HtHTTP class.
//
// The class has only 2 access point from the outside:
// - a method for cookies insertion (AddCookie());
// - a method for getting the HTTP request for cookies
//    (SetHTTPRequest_CookiesString).
//
// See "PERSISTENT CLIENT STATE HTTP COOKIES" Specification
