a caching SelectQuery like this:

if (refreshing) {
query.setRefreshingObjects(true);

else {
query.setRefreshingObjects(false);

List objects = dataContext.performQuery(query);
The change in 1.2 was in better defining the distinction of "cache
policy" vs. "refreshingObjects" flag. The former defines whether the
query is run at all; the later - whether the individual objects
within the result are refreshed IF the query is run. The other way of
looking at it is "list caching vs. object caching".
So to force a refetch you may do this:
query.setName("MyQueryName");
if (refreshing) {
query.setCachePolicy(QueryMetadata.SHARED_CACHE_REFRESH);
}
else {
query.setCachePolicy(QueryMetadata.SHARED_CACHE);
}

P.S. as an aside, I already have some code on the HEAD (Cayenne 3.0)
that support pluggable cache managers, so the query results can be
invalidated based on some declarative policy, instead of doing this
in the code.
