I'm building some Java applets for IE5. The applets need certain
privileges and hence are packaged in a signed CAB file. I test by
serving the applets up via a local Apache server.
I've set things up so that my JDE->Build menu entry runs Gnu Make to
recompile and re-package and re-sign the CAB file.
How does one let Internet Explorer (or Apache ?) know that the CAB
file is newer and needs to be downloaded again, after each compile
cycle ?
I've been doing the following:
- dive down into c:/winnt/java/packages
- find the .ZIP file with the gibberish name that corresponds to my
code
- deleting it
but this is dangerous; if you delete the wrong file by accident you
can hose IE's ability to load applets.
Is there a better way ?
