Refreshing use/require

clickingwires has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have a daemon that is running and I was wondering if there was an easy way to refresh the code in a use or require statement. I want to make changes and have them reflected but I don't want to have stop and start the daemon every time I make a change. Ideas?

Perhaps a script similar to Coding for OpenGL "live" would be useful for you. Rather than reloading many times per second, you would probably want to reload only when the daemon gets a specific signal or command.	[reply]
