CookieContainer class (.Net 2.0)

[keeper]

I am trying to use web services (SoapHttpClient) from the compact
framework but there doesn't seem to be any support for cookies? Have I
missed something or does anyone know of an alternative?

Also the documentation is inconsistent, as the visual studio docs say
that it isn't supported yet msdn2 says it is:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.net.cookiecontainer.aspx

You're right. There's no support for cookies for the soap client in CF.
What you can do though is to set the appropriate header in the WebRequiest
like I described here:

And for the access to the WebRequest in the SoapHttpClient take a look at
the David's post:

Where are you supposed to report errors in things like the msdn
library? I can't find it anywhere on their website.

The help pages typically have a Send Feedback link. That operation creates
a new e-mail which identifies the page on which the error occurred (a
helpful piece of information for the guy trying to fix the problem). That's
the best way, if there is such a link.
