Better caching (Wishlist)
Better caching // Wishlistcaptain mad mikeMay 5, 2001, 10:15pm
This really bugs me, I upload a file (say a midi) then use it in AW only to
find that it cannot load (because the file isn't fully uploaded) and AW just ignores that URL so I cannot open that midi unless I wipe out my cache (which is annoying) so, in 3.2 can the cache be smart and if some error comes up (like a 404) then the file does NOT get cached that way and will reload until it is fully downloaded and THEN cached. -- My two cents, Captain MAD Mike ananasMay 5, 2001, 10:31pm
Some HTTP servers seem to have an incorrect or no file size
in the HTTP reply header so it might not be possible to detect the "fully downloaded" state. If a request results in a 404, it already will be reloaded when you teleport to a place that doesn't exist or a red world. If this does not work it would mean that there was no such error.
