[2.18] #RESET affecting all sessions at once
|
Edit: It's not just two of the same session, it applies to all open sessions. I.e. #RESET is global not local
Create a new session with a single variable, test, with a default value 'defval'. Set it to use the default value
#reset
#say @testvar
shows 'defval' as expected.
Now open a second instance of the session and type
#show @testvar
shows 'defval' as expected.
in the 2nd session type
testvar = 123
#show @testvar
shows '123' as expected.
in the 1st session type
#RESET
now in both sessions you'll find that @testvar is 'defval', when it should still be '123' in the 2nd session
This is causing some considerable irritation when multiplaying |

My intuition is that this is a result of the Shared setting, which causes only one copy of the package to be loaded in memory. Have you tried with that setting off?

Makes no difference whether shared is checked or not

Actually, it doesn't even need to be instances of the same package. Using #RESET in any session resets every session.
Definitely a bug as #RESET shouldn't be global. |

You should add an argument to #RESET to tell it exactly which class folder or module/window to reset. #RESET without any arguments *does* reset all packages, because it has no way to tell which packages are actually part of a specific session. For example, you might be using shared packages between multiple sessions, etc. So, it is currently working as designed.

Not sure what the syntax would be to just do the current window.
If I'm multiplaying I'll have 2 or 3 'blahMud' windows open.
I want the window it's being called from to reset, but if I use %window then it's not unique. |

You can identify a window by using %id, but the problem then is that #RESET thinks you mean a file.
Can anyone help with the syntax to reset the current window, bearing in mind there may be two windows with the same name and I don't want to reset all instances.
Maybe if you need to use %id then #RESETFILE should reset files and #RESET should just be for settings? |
