Re: [Babeldoc-devel] Rereading the config files

[Bruce M. <br...@mc...>]

To respond to the list.  Yes - in theory.  There is also caching in the higher 
level components.  So the ideal solution (that hasnt been written) is to make 
the clients of the config classes listeners for value changes.  This would 
make it easy to completely flush caches (and dependant data).  This is very 
much like the Avalon classes.  It might mean a conformity of client classes 
(which will be necessary to implement listener interfaces to detect changes 
in cache status).

So the answer is yes - but use with care.
