Wiping out a loaded module

[Conaclos]

Hi!

Is there a way of removing an already loaded module?

Some context: I am writing an application that relies on a Wren script. The user can edit the main Wren script that my code re-executes. When I execute the script again, I go ta compile error telling me that some variables are already declared (notably imported variables). One possibility could be to wipe out the module from the VM. However, I didn't see any public API to do that. Did I miss something?

Hello!

There's no public api, but you can add a function to your system class or meta or somewhere that removes the module from the vm->modules map. this means the next time import is used, it won't be already loaded, and the new code will be loaded instead. Older thread.

DEF_PRIMITIVE(system_unloadModule)
{
  if (!validateString(vm, args[1], "Module")) return false;
  Value result = wrenMapRemoveKey(vm, vm->modules, args[1]);
  RETURN_VAL(result);
}
