Jetty browser cache control
Do you use Jetty and need to change the default setting for browser cache control? Have a look at the init-param element named cacheControl in webdefault.xml.
Here’s the default configuration for the version of Jetty I use. Note the element is commented.
<!-- <init-param> <param-name>cacheControl</param-name> <param-value>max-age=3600,public</param-value> </init-param> -->
To enable and configure browser cache control, uncomment and edit the param-value as appropriate. The following example instructs the browser to disable all caching.
<init-param> <param-name>cacheControl</param-name> <param-value>no-store,no-cache,must-revalidate</param-value> </init-param>
For information on Cache-Control, see RFC 2616, Section 14.9.
Jetty, embedded servlet container
There’s no law which states web servers and servlet containers must be large, separate pieces of software. If there were, Jetty would be a dangerous outlaw (possibly even public enemy number one). Jetty is an open-source embeddable web server and servlet container, written in Java. It’s small, fast, and easy to embed — perfect for self-contained applications.
Let’s use an example to discover just how easy embedding Jetty can be. Read more
