Seems like this is an asked question but I could find
no answer. I want to write an external program
(so no java script...) that can selectively delete certain items from netscape/mozilla's disk cache, how should I go about doing that?


I browsed through mozilla's source of about:cache, so
should I be making API calls to necko.dll to
mimic that (is that possible?) or is there any otherway?

Any pointer appreciated.

To "edit" the cache outside the Mozilla process itself, you need to first make sure that Mozilla is not running. If it is not running, then you can write a small program that uses the nsICacheService to enumerate the cache and "doom" various entries.


See the sample code in netwerk/test/

They are all small programs that just run link against xpcom.dll and access necko interfaces. If you have questions, please let me know.
