[2.0.5] IDE: import sub as su and from sub import * need IDE restart on changes in sub --- workaround

------------------- workaround
only use
import sub

-------------------------------------

I use IDE version 2.0.5, and I'm working with two files:

-index.sikuli
-utils.sikuli

Imagining that I make a change in the utils.sikuli file, for example in a print("123") to print("234"), and after saving the file, when I run it, it continues to print "123". I need to restart the IDE for it to get it to print the "234".

I've been investigating and I'm not even able to find a solution, from for example setting sikuli.properties to not keeping the cache, or using the reload method.

Sorry if this is a dumb question, and my poor English

one way that it worked for me as workaround was to use
import util
reload(util)

util.py is the file

Yep, like Chetan said,

use the reload.

import util
reload(util)
#if you want to call functions in util without mentioning util use an import * as well
from util import *
