Best way to save a tilelayer locally for offline use?

Hi,

Please let me know if it's possible to save data from an online tile layer such as

new ArcGISTiledMapServiceLayer(
       "http://services.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/World_Topo_Map/MapServer")

Into a local file or cache that you can then use to load the tiles offline?

I know you can load tiles from a .tpk file using the local tile object. Is this the only way? Is there a way to cache some extents of an online source into one of these .tpk files?

Thanks in advance for any help you guys can provide!

Chris,

For v10.1.1 there is not a documented way to do this. Coming in 10.2 is full offline support. You might take a look at these articles although they are a bit dated:
