Is Basex scanning static before each http-request?

Hi all
It seems that BaseX is scanning the webapp directory including static for each request. Is that right? And is it possible to turn it off ?
Best,
Lars

Caching can be turned off by setting CACHERESTXQ to true. Moreover, a sub-directory will not be parsed for RESTXQ files if it contains a file named .ignore (see [1] for more details).

Perhaps the distribution should include a .ignore in webapp\static as creating one can be a pain under windows [1]

An interesting hint. I’m always working with Windows, but I never noticed that ;) I have just added .ignore to the webapp/static directory.

Written for BaseX 8.4. BaseX may have changed since: please check the current documentation.
