HOWTO use loadable modules in LianjaScript

if more than one of the modules in the list of the require (..) parameter contains the same procedure name as in the example:

Code:

---

public mylib = require (“mylib1”, “mylib2”) //, “mylib3”… etc

value = mylib.myvar
value = mylib.getMyVar ()

---

after assigning a value, what will be the value of "value"? Which procedure is running? The order in which the parameter is listed? alphabetical order?

Try it and see.

If you use more than one require parameter then those on the right override those on the left.

this allows you to have a core library of procedures that can be overridden to support polymorphism..

If that’s not what you want don’t use it for that purpose.

If you are familiar with node,js require, or Python import this works in a similar way.
