[jira] [Commented] (CB-3071) App cache is invalidated after complete restart of an app

["Shazron Abdullah (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-3071?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13880342#comment-13880342 ] 

Shazron Abdullah commented on CB-3071:
--------------------------------------

My hunch is that for UIWebView, it is caching but it does not use the user set policy for NSURLCache and always stores it in memory. Although there was a workaround suggested of using SDURLCache that implied that this overriding works -- so I'm not sure if my first sentence is valid.

This might not be a solution that the Cordova core can solve. If the SDURLCache solution works, my suggestion is to create a plugin to wrap it, and load it at startup.

> I have this report from a developer:
> We've recently upgraded from 2.2 to 2.5 on IOS.
> In 2.2, our application leveraged cached assets after a complete restart of the application.  In 2.5 the same scenario always requests new assets from the web server.  The web server has not changed, and it returns caching instructions with the content.  Once the application is running, the cached assets are utilized as we expect.
> Is this by design?
