[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-7?page=all ] Graham Dumpleton closed MODPYTHON-7: ------------------------------------
> Autoreload works if mtime is newer, but not older. > -------------------------------------------------- > > Key: MODPYTHON-7 > URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MODPYTHON-7 > Project: mod_python > Type: Improvement > Versions: 3.1.3 > Reporter: Graham Dumpleton > Assignee: Nicolas Lehuen > Priority: Minor > Fix For: 3.2.7 > > The apache.import_module() method only reloads a Python module if the > modification time of the file on disk is newer. This means that if one > restores an old version of a file from backup, eg., by using "mv" command > from another location, it will not reload it and it is necessary to touch the > file or restart Apache. > The check in apache.py, instead of being just: > if mtime > oldmtime: > could perhaps be: > if mtime != oldmtime: > I don't believe this would cause any wider issues, but might be due some > thought first. > The various settings of mtime and oldmtime above that in the code, ie., to 0 > or 1, will also have to be reviewed to ensure this change doesn't break > anything. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
