All I know is that "URLRequest.useCache" is native property, and it would be very strange if C++ implementation internally added some random string to request instead of working with platform specific API or implementing own from scratch.

"useCache" not available in URLRequest ah, thanks for the clarification. somehow I missed that part about AIR. It seem like it would not be too hard (or a security problem) to build that functionality into the regular version. I implement the same functionality by just appending a random string onto the URL when I want to force a load from the server. Somewhat of a hack, but it works... I figured they had done a similar thing, but just built it into the URLRequest object.

Probably this is done due to security reasons... -- Thanks, Vadim Melnik, http://www.docsultant.com/ ----- Original Message ----- From: Kevin To: [email protected] Sent: Thursday, December 13, 2007 7:54 PM Subject: [flexcoders] Beta 2 bug? "useCache" not available in URLRequest The docs say there is a new public property 'useCache' that I can set to force a reload from the server of the URL. Yeah! BUT I can't seem to find it. It doesn't show up in code hinting and putting it in throws a compiler error. has anyone had success using(finding) this? (I am using Flex 3 beta 2, nightly build 190590) Is this another bug? - Kevin
