Cookies parts description
Lets look for details now:
language
As you know from previous chapter, the VIS9®CORE recognizes more than 14 languages pack. So it may be set on user device as best. Because there is not dependency on server session. Therefore user do not need to have opened session on the server.
This setting may be removed in the future, because it may be better saved at user session at VIS9®CORE on server site.
platform
The VIS9®CORE recognizes user platform, but it may be changed. This cookie is not used, it is prepared by design there only and not necessary yet. May be removed from here as language.
session
The most important cookie in the system. This cookie let VIS9®CORE recognize user profile and authentication. Here is detail description of session key parts:
Part | Description |
U | |
#code1# | User account ID at remote system for very easy user recognition. |
#code2# | Session key creation time YYYYMMDDHHMMSS |
#code3# | Random hash key1 |
#code4# | Random hash key2 |
welcome
When user open the VIS9®Desktop for first time, the licence agreement at Welcome application is shown. On end of "Welcome process" user can uncheck "Show next time". When user uncheck this, the value is stored into cookies. So, the welcome app, will not appear again on next VIS9®Desktop enter.
Reset/Delete cookies
There may be need or very good reason to destroy all VIS9 cookies immediatelly. It is very easy. Just put
question command ?reset to each browser where you want to do it and it is done.
Example:
1. | http://localhost/?reset |
There is no any info about reset yet (9.3.3002), but will be in the future.
