The next time Perl tries to \f(CW\*(C`require\*(C'\fR the same file, it sees the file in \f(CW%INC\fR and does not reload from disk. This module's handler iterates over \f(CW%INC\fR and reloads the file if it has changed on disk. .PP Note that StatINC operates on the current context of \f(CW@INC\fR. Which means, when called as a Perl*Handler it will not see \f(CW@INC\fR paths added or removed by Apache::Registry scripts, as the value of \f(CW@INC\fR is saved on server startup and restored to that value after each request. In other words, if you want StatINC to work with modules that live in custom \&\f(CW@INC\fR paths, you should modify \f(CW@INC\fR when the server is started. Besides, 'use lib' in startup scripts, you can also set the \fB\s-1PERL5LIB\s0\fR variable in the httpd's environment to include any non-standard 'lib' directories that you choose. For example, you might use a script called 'start_httpd' to start apache, and include a line like this: .PP .Vb 1 \& PERL5LIB=/usr/local/foo/myperllibs; export PERL5LIB .Ve .PP When you have problems with modules not being reloaded, please refer to the following lines in 'perlmodlib': .PP "Always use \fB\-w\fR. Try to \f(CW\*(C`use strict;\*(C'\fR (or \f(CW\*(C`use strict qw(...);\*(C'\fR). Remember that you can add \f(CW\*(C`no strict qw(...);\*(C'\fR to individual blocks of code that need less strictness. Always use \fB\-w\fR. Always use \fB\-w\fR! Follow the guidelines in the \fIperlstyle\fR\|(1) manual." .PP Warnings when running under mod_perl is enabled with 'PerlWarn On' in your httpd.conf. .PP It will most likely help you to find the problem. Really. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "StatINC_UndefOnReload" 4 .IX Item "StatINC_UndefOnReload" Normally, StatINC will turn of warnings to avoid \*(L"Subroutine redefined\*(R" warnings when it reloads a file. However, this does not disable the Perl mandatory warning when re-defining \f(CW\*(C`constant\*(C'\fR subroutines (see perldoc perlsub). With this option On, StatINC will invoke the \&\fBApache::Symbol\fR \fIundef_functions\fR method to avoid these mandatory warnings: .Sp .Vb 1 \& PerlSetVar StatINC_UndefOnReload On .Ve .IP "StatINC_Debug" 4 .IX Item "StatINC_Debug" You can make StatINC tell when it reloads a module by setting this option to on. .Sp .Vb 1 \& PerlSetVar StatINC_Debug 1 .Ve .Sp The only used debug level is currently 1. .SH "SEE ALSO" .IX Header "SEE ALSO" \&\fImod_perl\fR\|(3) .SH "AUTHOR" .IX Header "AUTHOR" Currently maintained by Ask Bjoern Hansen .
