Please Note: The first link points to something that used to work in HttpClient V3. Find V4-related info below.

This should answer your question

The following is relevant for V4:

...in addition, the javadocs should contain more information on cookie handling

http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/httpclient/apidocs/index.html

and here is a tutorial for httpclient v4:

http://hc.apache.org/httpcomponents-client-ga/tutorial/html/index.html

And here is some pseudo-code that helps (I hope, it's based only on docs):

HttpClient httpClient = new DefaultHttpClient();
// execute get/post/put or whatever
httpClient.doGetPostPutOrWhatever();
// get cookieStore
CookieStore cookieStore = httpClient.getCookieStore();
// get Cookies
List cookies = cookieStore.getCookies();
// process...

Please make sure you read the javadocs for ResponseProcessCookies and AbstractHttpClient.
