Details

Jar files accessed via jar:http:// are downloaded to bin/components/jarCache/ before they are extracted. This directory is never deleted and its contents never updated, even if the file on the server changes. This would be solved by switching to the real network cache using stream-as-file service, or if that isn't feasible for 6.0 RTM I could write a simpler solution.

This should really be a dup of bug 24765. If we don't use the real cache (and stream-as-file) for this, we'll just be reinventing the wheel. Mitch, can you own 24765?
Should we truly mark this as a duplicate of 24765?
Fixing bug 24765 will fix this. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 24765 ***
