I append a patch that let you say
PerlSetVar ReloadModuleX <perl-regex>
which allows you to specify a regex to reload modules. For example
PerlSetVar ReloadModuleX ^Apache
will check all Apache modules. Note: You have to use the / instead of the ::
as package separator if you need any.
PerlSetVar ReloadModuleX ^Apache/Auth
will realod all modules starting with Apache::Auth
I didn't have written the docs, Matt if you find this patch usefull maybe
you can do it (since your english is much better then mine :-), or drop me a
note and I will do it.
Gerald
P.S: The current version doesn't works with modules that uses pseudo hashs
(with "use fields qw{ .. }" ). I already solved this problem, but I have to
integrate it into Apache::Reload. When I have done it, I send a patch

Yes, my patch is against 0.04 which already contains ReloadModules, but for
example I have a project called symphony, which consists of serval modules,
in different files, but all starting with symphony::, now I just can say
PerlSetVar ReloadModulesX ^symphony
and all modules belonging to this projects gets reloaded, otherwise I have
to say
PerlSetVar ReloadModules "symphony::foo symphony::bar symphony::config ....
"
and I have to keep track when a new module is added to add it to this list
also.
Actualy I just made a copy of your code for ReloadModules and modified it a
little bit

I just didn't see a use for the power of regexps here. And I consider them
too ugly to be adding to configuration files. And I don't consider
flexible to be the ultimate best solution. One thing I am considering
though is adding support for exclusion, like do My::*, but not
My::Bar. I'll work something out maybe later.

I find regex support useful. Regex'es allow for your syntax, but not
the other way, so why not do it the most flexible way?

I already added something similar, only I didn't see the point in adding
in regex support, so I just allow you to say:
PerlSetVar ReloadModules "My::Foo My::Bar Foo::Bar::*"

Thanks - that would be great.
