I have a package named command, and many modules inside it, such as command.build, command.pack, command.help... I want to get all these modules at compile time so that I know what command is available.
As far as I understand there is s.th. called separate compilations. Your program may is compiled in parts. Your logic which loops over the modules only knows which modules are available at the specific point in time. I do not know whether there is some functionality which tells you all modules available at compile time. But if this functionality exists, you (the developer) has to be aware of separate compilation and should have a plan how to mitigate. Either do not use separate compilation or always force recompilation of all source code files...
In would really like to have such functionality and also the possibility to express in code: always recompile this part of code (the loop over the modules) even in separate compilation. I do not know whether that is technically possible...
Kind regards Andre
