Hi all I'm developing a portlet bridge in Jython, to enable developing J2EE portlets in Django, and I need to include a reload-on-code-change feature, to aid in development.
Unfortunately, the way django.utils.autoreload works, by triggering a complete restart of the Jython interpreter, has huge memory and thread leaks in Jython. It would appear that there is no clean way to unload a Jython interpreter from the JVM once it's been started. (For backing of this assertion, see my latest post on the jython-users list.) Therefore I'd like to know if there is a way to reload a Django project from within Python, without restarting the interpreter itself. For normal development it would be enough to reload the project's own models, views, urls, admin, form, middleware and such classes. Some of the settings could be kept, if it made the reloading simpler, such as filesystem paths, database connections, installed apps and middleware. Any changes to the standard library, Django, and in general any code that is not part of the current project's module could be ignored. If a developer needs to reload that, he can very well restart everything! Does anybody have any advice on how to do this? -Tobia -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
