loaded: Environment of loaded modules

Description

Each module is stored as an environment inside loaded_mods with the module’s code location path as its identifier. The path rather than the module name is used because module names are not unique: two modules called a can exist nested inside modules b and c, respectively. Yet these may be loaded at the same time and need to be distinguished.

Usage

loaded_mods

is_mod_loaded(info)

register_mod(info, mod_ns)

deregister_mod(info)

loaded_mod(info)

is_mod_still_loading(info)

mod_loading_finished(info, mod_ns)

Format

loaded_mods is an environment of the loaded module and package namespaces.

Arguments

info

the mod info of a module

mod_ns

module namespace environment

Details

is_mod_loaded tests whether a module is already loaded.

register_mod caches a module namespace and marks the module as loaded.

deregister_mod removes a module namespace from the cache, unloading the module from memory.

loaded_mod retrieves a loaded module namespace given its info.

is_mod_still_loading tests whether a module is still being loaded.

mod_loading_finished signals that a module has been completely loaded.
