Windows Phone 8.1: NavigationCache not required while forwarding the page

votes

I am creating a Windows 8.1 Universal App. I have three pages: Page 1,Page 2 and Page 3. I enabled the NavigationCacheMode inside the constructor on Page 2.

When i am navigating from Page 1(Login page) -> Page 2(Search screen) - > Page 3(Result Screen).

On Search screen, I am searching emails through API and then navigate to Result Page.When i press back button on result Page, my screen navigates to Page 2(Search Screen) with previous state which is okay.

But when I am logging out from Page 3(Result Page) itself then my screen would get navigates to Page 1(Login Page). and after then i again login then it would navigates to Page 2(Search Screen) but this time previous cached state of page are also there that should i don't want.

Means when i am navigating to fresh instantiated page, it captures the cached content from previous state when i was visited last time.

Suggest me. Any help would be appreciated.

When navigating to the second page, can you check NavigationEventArgs.NavigationMode in OnNavigatedTo override? If it's "New" you can clear the search term and search results – Igor Ralic
Yes i am checking Navigation mode. You mean to say that every time i have to clear all the objects manually again. – Vedank Kulshrestha

Per my understanding, you would like to clear the page cache when a user logged out. If so, we can try to reset the cache by setting the Frame.CacheSize to 0 first and set back to the original value. There is a good example in Andreas Hammer's blog as below:

var cacheSize = ((Frame) Parent).CacheSize;
((Frame) Parent).CacheSize = 0;
((Frame) Parent).CacheSize = cacheSize;

I would propose you to look at this Remove Pages windows phone where you can learn to remove pages. Further look into overriding the backkey event.
