    secure  => 0,
    },
  • domain

    Domain that can be referred.

  • path

    PATH that can be referred.

    domain  => 'mydomain.name',
    expires => '+3H',
    secure  => 1,
    });

cookies

The content of set Cookie is returned by the HASH reference.

no_cache ( [BOOL], [EXPIRES], [LAST_MODIFIED] )

The cash control is set.

When EXPIRES is given, $response->expires is set at the same time. If $response->expires is undefined, it defaults and '+1d' is set.

When LAST_MODIFIED is given, $response->last_modified is set at the same time. If $response->expires is undefined, it defaults and '+1d' is set.

0 Becomes invalid if it gives it. Moreover, please note that $response->last_modified and $response->is_expires also set 0 at the same time.

  $response-E<gt>no_cache(1, '+3d', '+3d');

attachment ( [FILE_NAME] )

STATUS_CODE sets the figure of the treble that can surely be recognized with the HTTP response header.

When STATUS_STRING is omitted, acquisition is tried from %Egg::Response::Status.

  $response-E<gt>status(400);

%Egg::Response::Status is as follows.

  200 ... OK

As for default, 'content_type' of configuration or 'text/html' is used.
