Re: Pass current language and arguments to portlet

Thanks a lot Serge, very useful !

Is there a way to disable caching of a specific webapp output ? Reading 
the doc "Jahia CMS and Portal Server" it tell to use url /cache/... 
hints, but does not affect the webapp cache
and the variable org.jahia.portletapi.CacheExpirationDelay affect all 
webapps.

Thank You again,

Lorenzo
