Caching Everything

Hi,

 

I would like to make polipo cache all the requests (without any exception,
ignoring all possible variants of a server's no cache headers), except if
the client sends a Pragma:no-cache header. (In my case there will only be
one application using the cache).

 

In the following setup, polipo for instance won't cache the results.

 

Expires: Thu, 01 Jan 1970 01:23:45 GMT

Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate, post-check=0,
pre-check=0

 

I tried patching the source code (eg the header assignment in http_parse.c
to drop such headers, but it didn't work)

Could you please send me in the right direction where and what I would have
to change in the sourcecode? Maybe there already exists an option I haven't
seen, as there is also a censoredHeaders on the client site.

 

The easiest way right now would be to chain two instances (one stripping the
headers), the other one caching the data. But it's not a nice solution.

 

 

Thanks,

Thibaut
