need to restart Webrick each time I change my model

Hi,

I'm new to rails and I'm following along the depot sample application in Agile Web Development with Rails

From what I understand I should not need to restart the server after

making changes to the model as long as I am in dev mode.

I got stuck on the part where you need to update the add_product function in cart.rb in order for it to not insert the same product twice but just increase the quantity.

For about an hour I was wondering why nothing changed and I tried all sorts of stuff until I decided to give restarting the server a try. And that did the trick But isn't that unnecessarry when running in dev mode?

thanks Marc

In development mode you don't need to restart the server when you
make changes to your controllers or views. But you do need to
restart the server when you change a model.

in model , make sure you include Reloadable or is subclass of ActiveRecord::Base(which include Reloadable).
