Return Value
A CacheControlInfo object. If the map service is not cached, all properties will be null.
Remarks
For a client to be able to cache map tiles, caching must be enabled on the service the client must be able to manage a local cache. To determine if a service is cachable, use the IsFixedScaleMap method on the MapServer proxy. The ability to manage a local cache is internal to many ESRI desktop products designed to consume ArcGIS Server Web services, such as ArcGIS ArcMap and ArcGIS Explorer. Using a client cache will often enhance user interaction with a ArcGIS Server map service. Map image tiles that have already been accessed can be stored and retrieved locally, which is generally faster than generating a Web request to retrieve a map image tile from a remote server. Leveraging this capability in a custom client application will require custom implementation - the SOAP API does not manage this for you.
