Greetings from cloudy Prague!
I am developing web application with mod_perl/apache/mysql. I am using
several own perl modules (*.pm), and after changing the contents of a
particular module, i usually have to reload/restart apache for these
changes to take effect. it is quite annoying. Is there any way how to
bypass this process and make apache aware of the changes automatically?
Install Apache::Reload from CPAN.
Greetings from sunny (right now anyway) Southern Germany.
I see that you mention mysql. This probably means DBI.
I think you need to be a bit careful with DBI and Apache::Reload. I
seem to recall that there are some particularities there
(Probably in relation to permanent cached database connections).
In any case, I believe Apache::Reload is OK for a development server,
but on a production server this is probably not very efficient.
There is no free lunch : if you ask the server to monitor certain things
and do something in case of change, then that has a cost.
