[jbosstools-issues] [JBoss JIRA] (JBIDE-20610) Request upstream enhancement to allow users more control over internet cache

Martin Malina commented on JBIDE-20610:
---------------------------------------

So, I read through the BZ and this is how I understand the fix:
1. By default, no-cache header is still honored, so no caching happens there unless you check the checkbox in preferences
2. If you check the check-box, caching for no-cache will be 10 minutes
3. You can customize the default caching period, but this does not apply to the no-cache header

On the BZ, Max previously commented on the suggestion that no-cache caching will be hard-coded to a few minutes:

If the caching is only a few minutes this won't fix this problem.
{quote}

So this seems like not much was improved here :(

I did check this in devstudio-11.0.0.GA-v20170804-2000-B708-installer-standalone.jar and it seems to work as expected. When I checked the ignore no-cache checkbox and then validated something, new entries were added to Cache entries. When I removed those entries and unchecked the checkbox and validated again, entries were not added.
I didn't check the duration of the caching though.
