Mailing List Archive: Debugging libraries loaded into Embperl files

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

I have several libraries of helper routines that I load into my HTML files.

I tried using Execute to load them, but I started getting weird
things where it seemed like there was more than one copy of the
library in use.

I'm currently using require, but then the library gets cached and I
can't get my changes to load (some of the time) without restarting
the server.

Any suggestions? I'm going to try going back to Execute right now, but...

I'm not sure which upsets me more: that people are so unwilling to accept
responsibility for their own actions, or that they are so eager to regulate
everyone else's.

This shouldn't be the case, as long as you don't use the mtime parameter in
a incorrect way (normaly don't use it at all for disk files)

Yes, see my other mail on modules in Embperl.

You can use "do", but then the file is executed everytime. If it plain Perl
code (no Embperl code), then you can consider writing a small module that
only reloaded your lib when it has changed or maybe Apache::StatINC can
help.
