Clear Adobe Debug Projector Cache

[Waslap]

Hi,

I have tried to clear the cache of the Flash debug projector under Windows using the advertised means of Settings/Flash Player/Storage/Delete All and Settings/Flash Player/Advanced/Delete All but neither had the desired results. The debug projector absolutely refuses to retrieve an updated swf on the web server after the first time the URL was accessed. Can anyone assist please ?

Thanks

Hi,

You may try clearing the cache by deleting the contents of the following folders:

Windows

• %appdata%\Adobe\Flash Player
• %appdata%\Macromedia\Flash Player

Macintosh

• ~\Library\Preferences\Macromedia\Flash Player\
• ~\Library\Caches\Adobe\Flash Player\

Thanks!

I have neglected to state in my original post that I have also done as you suggested to no avail.

It's hacky, but as a workaround, you could probably append a get parameter, like foo.swf?entropy=<timestamp>

Are you working on a kiosk or something, or just doing local development?

This does the trick thanks. Don't know why I didn't think of it.

I was going to mention that if you're doing local development for web content, running a local web-server is my preferred option.  It lets you test any security considerations (cross-domain requests, etc.), and you have a lot more flexibility in terms of configuring cache values in response headers, etc...
