#require_dependency(file_name, message = "No such file to load -- %s.rb") ⇒ Object

Warning: This method is obsolete in :zeitwerk mode. In :zeitwerk mode semantics match Ruby’s and you do not need to be defensive with load order. Just refer to classes and modules normally. If the constant name is dynamic, camelize if needed, and constantize.

In :classic mode, interprets a file using mechanism and marks its defined constants as autoloaded. file_name can be either a string or respond to to_path.

In :classic mode, use this method in code that absolutely needs a certain constant to be defined at that point. A typical use case is to make constant name resolution deterministic for constants with the same relative name in different namespaces whose evaluation would depend on load order otherwise.

Engines that do not control the mode in which their parent application runs should call require_dependency where needed in case the runtime mode is :classic.

#unloadable(const_desc) ⇒ Object

Mark the given constant as unloadable. Unloadable constants are removed each time dependencies are cleared.

Note that marking a constant for unloading need only be done once. Setup or init scripts may list each unloadable constant that may need unloading; each constant will be removed for every subsequent clear, as opposed to for the first clear.

The provided constant descriptor may be a (non-anonymous) module or class, or a qualified constant name as a string or symbol.

Returns true if the constant was not previously marked for unloading, false otherwise.
