Hi all,

I'm creating a framework for my game server, and developing the module hot
update feature.

My design is very similar to the Erlang hot update feature. Modules will be
hot updated should meet the interface:
module.exports = {
  'status': "data",
  'version': "1.0",
  'init': function() {
     return initialStatus;
  },
  'code_changed': function(oldVersion, newVersion, oldStatus) {
     return newStatus;
  }
};

So, when the module source file changes, the framework will get the status
of original version of module, and remove it from the module cache, and
import the new module, and invoke the code_changed method of the new
version of module to generate the new status and assign it to the new
module to finish the update process.

As a result, I need an API to remove the module from the module cache, will
it be possible or  will this API be added in the future version of node?

Best regards.
