How to clear the cache of a UIWebView?
I am making a simple application (with only three buttons (back, forward, refresh) and a UIWebView) and I realized that in my Documents & Data iPhone gets a very high value of Cache. I already looked at various documents and posts (even here at StackOverflow) but none solved the problem. If you need lines of codes, ask.
[[NSURLCache sharedURLCache] removeCachedResponseForRequest:NSURLRequest];
This would remove a cached response for a specific request. There is also a call that will remove all cached responses for all requests ran on the UIWebView:
[[NSURLCache sharedURLCache] removeAllCachedResponses];
After that, you can try deleting any associated cookies with the UIWebView:
for(NSHTTPCookie *cookie in [[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] cookies]) {
if([[cookie domain] isEqualToString:someNSStringUrlDomain]) {
[[NSHTTPCookieStorage sharedHTTPCookieStorage] deleteCookie:cookie];
}
}
its so simple
[[NSURLCache sharedURLCache] removeAllCachedResponses];
