Re: [flexcoders] Re: [Flex2.0] How can I control cache of HTTPService inside FlashPlayer?

yeah thats what I do but I use this method instead
 
var d:Date = new Date();
 
 url  += "?"  + d.getTime().toString();
 
that way I know for sure the number will always be different :p
 
and it is the flash player that caches it ( only if you use the flash player alone otherwise yes it does use your browser ). if you run the SWF file on it's own ( using flash player but not within a browser ) it remembers it.
 
My guess is that the flash player remembers the URL and the contents it recieved.

Via code you can append a random number to the URL.  Since it's generally
unique each time, it almost never reads from the cache.  I reckon if you
build your URL dynamically for HTTPService, you can ensure it'll never be
cached.

var url : String = "http://www.server.com/file.php";
url += "?" + String ( Math.random() * 9999) ;

Set the proper cache control headers on the server side.  The player
is not caching this, the browser is.  The player piggy backs on the
browsers HTTP stack generally.
