[SOLVED] Does jsoup.connect().get() return cached Document?

Does jsoup.connect().get() return cached Document?

I use jsoup and following code to get the HTML content of a website Document doc = Jsoup.connect(this.getUrl()).get();.

Does I get a cached version of the website? Is it possible to request a non-cached version? I knew I could set a header request. Something like:

header("Cache-control", "no-cache");  
header("Cache-store", "no-store");

But I’m not sure if that works. I just knew that these tags are used for the client browser.

It would be awesome if someone could clarify. Greetings.

Solution

Any headers that you correctly (HTTP spec) specify will be sent to target host via java.net.URLConnection.addRequestProperty(String, String). You should get a cached version of the page if server supports this header, end-to-end. jSoup just supplies the headers as the request it made and when I looked through the source, it does not make any explicit effort to cache off the response content.
