How do i reload a module in the vendor directory?

Rails
1

This seems like a fairly straight forward question. I have code in the
vendor directory.
Any modifications that I make to the code are not respected. My rails
app
is in development mode so I would expect any require ‘code’ to be
re-parsed. But this is not occuring… How so? I have a test to post
if I
need to, but I get the feeling that I am just missing something simple.
I
will spare the test for the moment.

If it is imporant, I am using lighttpd 1.3.14, rails 1.0.0, and
actionpack
1.11.2.

Best regards,
Travis Michel.

Rails doesn’t parse the require to reload files. It uses its own
dependency
system. You can use model, observer or service method to create custom
dependencies. look at
http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionController/Dependencies/ClassMethods.html

Hope it helps,

Thank you Damien, That was exactly the kind of explanation I needed to
understand what was happening.
