thanks for links, I'll look at them. Alan showed me some possibilities, i'm not quite sure how to initiate modification and the way import keyword works in case of modified imported modules. my typical scenario is that my swing application is running, and i see some error or chance for improvement - modify sources of app, stop and run application again. so task is to reload class defitions (from source files) and modify also existing instances (their methods).
