String

The name of the cookie.

context

HttpContext

The HttpContext for the request.

Called from the overloaded Read methods to do the actual work of reading the cookie. The Read methods will ensure that name is a non-empty string.

Notes to Implementers

You must override this method. The implementation is entirely up to the developer. In the typical case, implementations read the cookie data from the Cookies collection, however, this is not a requirement.
