Re: createing a php script with reloadable modules.

yes but. when does it cashe the file. at the beginning right when the script first starts running. isn't there a way to make it hmm refresh the cashed file reload its self to pick up the changes? what if I add a new module while it is running. how do I get it to pick up this new module. what if I make a change in the module how do I get it to pick up the change in the module with out shutting down the core script. shutting down the core script is the last thing I want to do it has to remain running. currently I am looking at running each module as a separate script the core script kicks off each of the modules one at a time. but this just seams to be the wrong way to go about it. but at least that way any changes in the modules would be picked up next time they where run by the core script. btw thanks for all your feelings. having someone to hash this out with is helping. kill-9 ----- Original Message ----- From: "phobo" <antiphobo@paradise.net.nz> To: "Php-Windows@Lists.Php.Net" <php-windows@lists.php.net> Sent: Tuesday, January 23, 2001 10:01 AM Subject: Re: [PHP-WIN] createing a php script with reloadable modules. > I can't see why PHP would crash?
