Hi PID: Say the object from the servlet contains the string "Hi the date is : Jun 18, 2009 12:30:19 PM"
When I call the first time URL urlobj = new URL(servletURL); HttpURLConnection con = (HttpURLConnection) urlobj.openConnection(); The object returned from the request contains the string: "Hi the date is : Jun 18, 2009 12:30:19 PM" When I call it again, say 4 seconds later, I prefer: "Hi the date is : Jun 18, 2009 12:30:19 PM" not "Hi the date is : Jun 18, 2009 12:30:23 PM" I do not want to have the 2nd request call the servlet, but instead use local cache/browser cache since it is still fresh... --- On Thu, 6/18/09, Pid <p...@pidster.com> wrote: From: Pid <p...@pidster.com> Subject: Re: object serializable and caching???

I had a sleep set up of 4 sec in console app.) --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
