I currently use Apache2::Reload on my development environments. However it's

FWIW, I have not had much luck with Apache2::Reload in my development
environment (Linux, Apache2 Prefork MPM). Most of the time when I
change something, it produces "Not a CODE reference" type errors.
I have had much better luck with Module::Refresh. I did it this way to
only reload packages starting with MyApp::
in httpd.conf
PerlInitHandler MyApp::Apache2::Reload
the module looks like this:
package MyApp::Apache2::Reload;
use Module::Refresh;
my $cache = Module::Refresh->new;
sub handler : method {
for my $mod (keys %INC) {
next unless $mod =~ /^MyApp/;
$cache->refresh_module_if_modified($mod);
}
}
1;
__END__
This has worked perfectly for me.
