Hi, I am using Feed API (v1) in my android application to read some
feeds. Currently I poll the feed API once a hour, is there a way to know if
the result is not modified. I am using
url = new
URL("http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/services/feed/load?v=1.0&q={feedurl}&num="
+ 20);
HttpURLConnection httpCon = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();
long date = httpCon.getLastModified();
But the date is 0. Is it possible to look for 304 status from Feed API,
this would greatly improve the performance and bandwidth.
The second question is about caching. There are some feeds that are not
updated frequently by Feed API. Is there a way to ping FeedAPI (inside the
Android app) to notify the feed is updated? If not, is there a way that the
publisher of the feed can ping Feed API about the update? Thanks a lot.
