getting modules to reload

Using stock install of Debian's AOLserver package, I am trying to figure out how to get my modules to automatically reload (or even manually) without having to restart the entire server. Is this possible? If so, how?

Explanation:

I have a module "mymod.tcl" in "/usr/lib/aolserver4/servers/main/modules/tcl". I want to change a small bit of behavior in the module, say, correcting a typographical error. In order to get this change to be read by the server, I have to stop and then start the server. This is not desired. --Caveman 16:31, 11 January 2006 (EST)

  • You want to look at ns_eval. Specifically, you would do something like "ns_eval source /usr/lib/aolserver4/servers/main/modules/tcl/mymod.tcl" to source in that file in all active Tcl interps. -- Dossy 21:00, 12 January 2006 (EST)
    • Awesome. Thanks as usual, Dossy. --68.164.214.148 22:24, 12 January 2006 (EST)
