It might be getting cached. Try adding a timestamp to the end of the url
(ie url/myfile.xml?timestamp={currentTimeStamp} ).
Before you all the .send() method, reset the timestamp variable to the current
time.

Ok. I have the following HTTP Service declared:
<mx:HTTPService id="reportDataRPC"
url="reports/xml/{_reportInfo.fileName}.xml"
result="rdHandler(event);"
fault="rpcFaultHandler(event);"/>
In the init() function (which is called when the 'show' event happens, because
the page it's on happens to be part of a ViewStack) I have the following line:
reportDataRPC.send();
This loads the data from the .xml file and in the "rdHandler" function lets me
put that data into my various ArrayCollections and whatnot... That's working
fine... At least, the FIRST time...
Every subsequent time, the result-set is exactly the same as the first time --
even if the .xml file it's reading has changed in the interim.
If I completely shut-down the program and re-load it, then I finally get the
new .xml file in there.
So, how do I get it to give me a complete refresh of the data? I've tried
calling 'reportDataRPC.clearResult()' and 'reportDataRPC.disconnect()' after
storing the data in my ArrayCollections, but that didn't seem to do anything at
all...
I'm at a complete loss -- it's totally unacceptable to not be able to get the
new data when the underlying .xml file changes. Can someone point me in the
right direction?
