java + tomcat cookie 异常

Cookie cookie = new Cookie(username,value);
                cookie.setMaxAge(60*60*24*7,cookie);
                response.addCookie(cookie);

在执行到 response.addCookie(cookie); 时 报错，发现在 cookie中保存的 username 变量是 英文时无问题，如果是中文则会出现以下异常～

严重: Servlet.service() for servlet [Login] in context with path [/learntest] threw exception
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Control character in cookie value or attribute.

原因（猜测）:

　　由于cookie 中只能以ASCII码的格式进行保存(即只能保存英文)  而在 Cookie.addCookie 方法中检查了 保存的文本内容 发现无法识别 抛出异常

解决方案:

　　在把变量保存到 cookie对象中之前 先 对 username 变量 使用 URLEncoder工具类 进行编码，使之以 unicode 编码格式进行保存

　　在提取 cookie 中 username 变量时 先使用 URLDecoder 工具类进行解码，使之以 utf-8 进行使用。

　　value = URLEncoder.encode(value, "utf-8");
        Cookie cookie = new Cookie(username,value);

　　cookie.setMaxAge(60*60*24*7,cookie);

　　response.addCookie(cookie);
