How to force HttpWebRequest to use cache in ASP.NET environment?

Question

In my ASP.NET app I use HttpWebRequest for fetching external resources which I\'d like to be cached. Consider the following code:

var req = WebRequest.Create(\"h         


        

Answer 1

You can use the cache manually in your code like this:

 Cache.Insert("request", req, Nothing, DateTime.Now, TimeSpan.FromSeconds(30), TimeSpan.Zero)

You can use this Method like you would use caching with in web.config.
