The following JSP snippet shows a simple caching policy for JS files, i.e.
the browser fetches js files when a new build is available.

qBuildNum is a build number or a repository revision suffix, e.g.?102 etc.
ServerInfoService.getBuildNumber() is a function which returns current build number. This function has to be coded manually, alternatively a servlet context attribute can be used...

<%
    String qBuildNum = '?' + ServerInfoService.getBuildNumber(); //Suffix for JS to avoid caching
%>
