[Closed] How to clear cache with maxscript?

well… How you created a web browser with Max? dotnet? so you can also delete the cache that way.

i don’t have time to check it specially for IE11 but the general method could be as:

global InternetCacheAssembly =
(
	local source  = ""
		
	source += "using System;\n"
	source += "using System.IO;\n"
	source += "\n"
	source += "public class InternetCache\n"
	source += "{\n"
	source += "    public static string GetFolderPath()\n"
	source += "    {\n"
	source += "        return Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.InternetCache);\n"
	source += "    }\n"
	source += "    public static void Delete()\n"
	source += "    {\n"
	source += "        string path = GetFolderPath();\n"
	source += "        DirectoryInfo di = new DirectoryInfo(path);\n"
	source += "        foreach (FileInfo file in di.GetFiles())\n"
	source += "        {\n"
	source += "            file.Delete();\n"
	source += "        }\n"
	source += "        foreach (DirectoryInfo dir in di.GetDirectories())\n"
	source += "        {\n"
	source += "            dir.Delete(true);\n"
	source += "        }\n"
	source += "    }\n"
	source += "}\n"

	csharpProvider = dotnetobject "Microsoft.CSharp.CSharpCodeProvider"
	compilerParams = dotnetobject "System.CodeDom.Compiler.CompilerParameters"

	compilerParams.ReferencedAssemblies.Add("System.dll");

	compilerParams.GenerateInMemory = true
	compilerResults = csharpProvider.CompileAssemblyFromSource compilerParams #(source)
		
	compilerResults.CompiledAssembly
)

/*

InternetCache_cl = dotnetclass (InternetCacheAssembly.GetTypes())[1]
InternetCache_cl.GetFolderPath()
InternetCache_cl.Delete()

*/

i’m pretty sure there is a way to write the same using pure mxs and dotnet (just catch the idea)

thank you very much , it worked

i changed a little bit

InternetCache_cl = dotnetclass (InternetCacheAssembly.GetTypes())[1]
fileClass = dotNetClass “System.IO.Directory”
cache_path = InternetCache_cl.GetFolderPath()
searchSubDirs=(dotnetClass “System.IO.SearchOption”)
theFile=(fileClass.GetFiles cache_path “*.htm” searchSubDirs.AllDirectories)

for i = 1 to theFile.count do
(
try(deletefile theFile[i])catch()
)
