Currently if a plugin uses a config file, there is no way to be notified of updates to that specific file and the plugin itself will not be reloaded unless the remap.config changes Proposing we add a new API that plugins can use to 'attach' their config file param to a list of files that also get monitored. When a config reload is issued, if the remap.config has changed then the remap should be reloaded through the usual method, however if any registered plugin configs have changed then the remap should be reloaded as well to be to unload/reload those plugins using all the proper reference counting that already exists. This avoids using hacky implementations inside plugins of monitoring for mgmt updates and having to maintain their own methods to free things and reload files ---------------------------------------------------------------- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
