Re: vim9 autoload script modified : How to reload it On-The-Fly

Ok Bram that what I do each time I modify an autoload vim9script (so I do the best I can :)

effectively, sourcing does not work sorry lifepillar: it echoes to me a message E1091 Function HighCaller (below) is not compiled.

And the calling tree is as this :

nnoremap foo <ScriptCmd> Helper. HighCaller  ()<CR> ->  autoload/vim9fooscript.vim :: exported def HighCaller() ->  autoload/vim9fooscript.vim :: def SubCalled

So it seems to be  needed to add a mapping to launch gvim -c with the command test I need.

Thank you

Nicolas

There is no reliable way to reload an autoload script and have all the
changes take effect. It's best to exit Vim and restart. Trying to make
this work without a Vim restart is not only complicated, it is also
going to be unreliable.
