Rupy can switch code on the fly, meaning you can have users hitting your server and they will run the old code one request and new code the next. No other system I know of works like this, hot-deploying on a remote machine over HTTP seamlessly. Maybe erlang can do it but then again I can't write a 3D game in that language so Java still has the upper hand for my requirements.

Thanks, all!
- akubera 11y agoAlso, if you're talking about specifically replacing a source files (i.e. modules), one could hack around with https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#importlib.reload https://docs.python.org/3/library/importlib.html#importlib.r.... I think it would work with enough indirection/factory functions.
