Answer 1

If you are using Magento Enterprise (I'm using 1.13), the above code in the aforementioned answers does not seem to be enough to flush the full page cache.

It took me a while to figure out what was going on, but there are a few methods that fire as a result of events when using the web interface that would not be covered when using the code above. Of critical importance, is the cleanCache method of Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Observer.

To fix, I added the following code after either Magento Guy or Oğuz Çelikdemir's code.

Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Cache::getCacheInstance() ->clean(Enterprise_PageCache_Model_Processor::CACHE_TAG);

Hope this saves someone some time!
