Subject: auto-reload changed dependancies

Hi Rubyers

Does ruby keep a list of require'd files anywhere?  I'd like to make a  
method that will loop over them, check the last modification time to see  
if they've, and reload them if they have.

One of the frustrating things about rails is that running it as a CGI to  
have it auto-reload your changes can take 5-11 seconds to render a page  
(at least on windows) - which makes testing a pain.  I'm hoping to make  
the ruby equilavant of Apache::StatINC in perl, but aren't sure of where  
to begin, or if this has already been done before.

Thanks,
Kevin
