qaz has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:
I am trying to create a simple Term::ReadLine based shell and I was wondering if there is any way to dynamically reload a file which has been required in the script(which might be cool for debugging...).
#!/usr/bin/perl -w require 'spamassassin.pm'; use Term::ReadLine; use Data::Dumper; my %subs = ( ); $term = new Term::ReadLine 'prep test'; my $attribs = $term->Attribs; # auto completion is working... $attribs->{completion_entry_function} = $attribs->{list_completion_fun +ction}; $attribs->{completion_word} = [keys %subs,'print','n','Dumper','shp']; + my $OUT = $term->OUT || \*STDOUT; while( defined($_ = $term->readline("prep test shell >")) ) { last if /^\s*qu?i?t?$/i; # "quit" my $res = eval($_); warn $@ if $@; }
Here, it would be nice to be able to reload the spamassassin.pm file, if, per example I've made some changes to it, but I don't want to quit the shell...
Thanks in advance.
