Question

I’m using org.apache.http.client.methods.HttpGet to read a plain text file from the server. The server isn’t sending any kind of “expires” header. I find that repeated calls to HttpGet are returning an out-of-date version of the text file, obviously from some sort of cache.

Is there a way to force the GET to go to the server instead of the cache?

Answer 1

try this

addHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache");
