I'm developing on Windows, using InstantRails and i've run into a
problem.

My development workflow, till now, has been as follows:
1. start the server: ruby script/server --debug
2. run my application by invoking a controller from the browser -
observe behaviour
3. edit source file to fix bug/change behaviour
4. save source file
5. goto #2

This has worked really well for me, until recently.

The bulk of the code that I am working on is in a file ('foo.rb') that
is in the model directory but that is not associated with a specific
model. It declares a certain constant that I would like to be able to
access from my controller. So - in my controller, I have required
foo.rb (require "foo.rb").

This seems to have broken my nice comfortable workflow. Now - when I
make changes in foo.rb and save foo.rb, the changes are not picked up
and have no effect on program execution. I need restart the server in
order to pick up the changes.

I assume that somehow, requiring foo.rb in my controller prevents it
from being reloaded automatically as it had been previously. Is there
a way to force foo.rb to be reloaded after a change? Other suggestions
for how to get aorund this?

Many thanks.
Yoram
