当您的应用程序承载 web 浏览器控件时,可能需要以编程方式清除缓存。此功能不能通过 web 浏览器控件的接口。本文介绍了如何使用 WinInet API 函数直接清除缓存。
使用 WinInet API FindFirstURLCacheEntry 查找第一个缓存项,并使用 FindNextUrlCacheEntry 枚举通过缓存。若要删除的每个条目使用 DeleteUrlCacheEntry。
请注意在下面的示例中使用 FindFirstUrlCacheGroup、 FindNextUrlCacheGroup 和 DeleteUrlCacheGroup。因此若要防止出现错误需要正确的检查,如图所示,这些 API 函数仅有成为可用的 Internet Explorer 5。
