While developing in IJulia notebook (and REPL) if I need to redefine a type
I am informed of "invalid redefinition of constant". According
to http://julia.readthedocs.org/en/latest/manual/faq/ the types in module
Main cannot be redefined and as a workaround it suggests wrapping the code
inside the module. But if I do:
In[1]:
module Mod1
type Foo
name::String
end
a = Foo("bar")
println(a.name)
end
How can I get access to Types defined in In[1]
eg. In[2]:
using Mod1
b = Foo("bar")
println(b.name)
ERROR: Foo not defined
I tried using, export, import, importall to no avail and placing the code
in the .jl file and using include("something.jl") is not an "an excellent
workaround" because it defies the purpose of using notebook.
I know I can restart the kernel but it is not too practical to do too often.
