load external image to URL

General
1

Hello,
I have a problem. I would like to upload an image from an external URL. There currently use these instructions:
ExternalResource img = new ExternalResource (“http://83.103.118.5/suiteTIC/snapshots/SRI.ECO.TLC.01.01/1.jpg”);
Embedded Embedded image = new (1, img);

The problem is that my image changes while keeping the same URL. I try to reload the image but I see always the same, I guess it’s the browser to cache.
How do I reload the image in a dynamic context, sensitive to changes, without reloading the affected application or press F5 in the browser?
Thank you.

Hi,

Does it help, if you add a timestamp as a GET parameter when reloading the image, something like:

embedded.setSource(new ExternalResource(
						"http://83.103.118.5/suiteTIC/snapshots/SRI.ECO.TLC.01.01/1.jpg?"
								+ Calendar.getInstance().getTime().getTime()));

You could try re-setting the Embedded with a new Resource, or replacing the Embedded with a completely new instance.

it works perfectly.
Thank you.
