I've also had several reports like this on my current project. I haven't
been able yet to tell whether the problem was due to:
- a bad machine date (either local machine or remote repo machine)
- a web server not supporting if-modified-since
- a bug
I have looked at the source code and couldn't find any reason why it
wouldn't work as expected (in HttpUtils, from CVS HEAD):
[...]
boolean hasTimestamp = false;
if ( useTimestamp && destinationFile.exists() )
{
timestamp = destinationFile.lastModified();
hasTimestamp = true;
}
[...]
if ( useTimestamp && hasTimestamp )
{
connection.setIfModifiedSince( timestamp );
}
[...]
if ( httpConnection.getResponseCode() ==
HttpURLConnection.HTTP_NOT_MODIFIED )
{
return;
}
Any idea?
