how about '#require_dependency if defined? Rails' ?

[stanislaw]

Hi!

I can't foresee now all possible consequences, but it seems to be possible to have #require_dependency instead of #require when require_all is operating in Rails app context.

What do you think?

And...

Thank you for a nice gem!

Could you be more specific what would that #require_dependency do exactly?

[stanislaw]

It allows class reloading on each request in development mode.

I'm not sure if that is meant for a public use.

But, nevertheless - you can already do that since RequireAll has quite flexible API. Just put :require_dependencies as a :method argument for #require_all:

module ::RequireAll
  def require_all_deps *args
    require_all args, :method => :require_dependencies
  end
end

# and now use #require_all_deps wherever you want...
