问题
I'm embedding IronPython in my application. Everything goes fine but I found that when I use CreateScriptSourceFromFile to execute a file, it seems that IronPython cached other imported module.
For example I have another file as foo.py:
foo = 'foo'
And I use IronPython hosting API to execute bar.py:
from foo import foo
print foo
If I make changes to bar.py then without exiting the host application I can see my changes made take effect. But if I edit foo.py then I have to reboot my application to see the changes. I've already enabled Debug in the options but it does not help.
Please advice. Thanks very much.

Yes, imported modules are cached by the ScriptEngine instance. You'll have to create a new engine instance if you want to reload cached modules automatically. There's currently no way to disable that and always reload modules.
An option to disable the caching behaviour isn't a bad idea; open an issue so that it's on the radar. Patches are even better, of course.
