Title:
  IDE: Importing doesn't work when imported file changes: Requires
  Sikuli restart

Status in Sikuli:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  *** possible workaround ---------------------------------
  use 
  import functions
  reload(functions)

  ... but this only works if the module is fully reloadable (means: does not contain code, that should only run once)
  ----------------------------------------------------------

  Sikuli cannot import changes from another sikuli project to main
  sikuli project without restarting Sikuli.

  Let say we have main.sikuli and some functions on separate sikuli
  project (let say functions.sikuli).  Importing works fine but doesn't
  work when doing changes on the imported Functions.sikuli. Both
  projects are open simultaneously and I do quite often changes to
  functions when developing because on test automation chains can be
  very long and reusable code is needed.

  This is very annoying to shut down Sikuli always when changing other
  project and then restarting it. It causes sometimes really strange
  errors if forgot to restart...

  Basically this happens always for me. Below is import part of the main.sikuli.
  # coding: utf-8
  from sikuli import *
  import os
  import Functions

  OS: Windows 7 SP1 64 bit
  Sikuli v1.0.0 32bit on 64bit platform because Java is forced 32bit
