To no-cache web page, in the java controller servlet, I did somthing like this in a method:

public ModelAndView home(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) throws Exception {
    ModelAndView mav = new ModelAndView(ViewConstants.MV_MAIN_HOME);
    mav.addObject("testing", "Test this string");
    mav.addObject(request);
    response.setHeader("Cache-Control", "no-cache, no-store");
    response.setHeader("Pragma", "no-cache");
    response.setDateHeader("Expires", 0);
    return mav;
}

But this only works for a particular response object. I have many similar methods in a servlet. And I have many servlets too.

If I want to disable cache throughout the application, what should I do? (I do not want to add above code for every single response object)

Thanks in advance.
