I use the ASP.NET Development Web server (also known as the Visual Studio Development Web server) to do local web site debugging and testing.
I’ve pretty much found exact functionality with IIS with the dev web server. However – where can you manage the settings of the dev web server – specifically regarding never caching any content – ever?
This of course is useful in a development scenario where I dont want to have to clear my cache…
It’s not so much the server you need to worry about doing caching. It’s your browser. With that in mind, the shift-key is your friend. Just hold down the shift key while clicking refresh for a page and your browser will clear any cached content for the page.
