Summary: <get> unexpectedly obtains cached versions of web
pages
Product: Ant
Version: 1.7.1
Platform: All
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
Component: Core tasks
AssignedTo: [email protected]
ReportedBy: [email protected]
org.apache.tools.ant.taskdefs.Get obtains a URLConnection from the source URL.
The URLConnection class can use a cache, and apparently does so by default.
When I was repeatedly running a script that had to have the most up-to-date
version of a web page, this caused a problem that was difficult to track down.
Get should either expose URLConnection's caching options to the user, or should
always disable the use of caches as follows:
connection.setUseCaches(false);
Since this caching behavior is not documented anywhere, this latter option
might be preferable.
