[julia-users] Deprecation of require

[Eduardo Lenz]

Hi
I just downloaded the last nightly build and I am receiving a new
deprecation message:

Warning, "require" is deprecated, use "using" or "import" instead.

My question is: I am using "require" due to the need to automatically
import these functions for all workers in a cluster. As long as I know, to
accomplish this task I have to use "require" and also provide the correct
path of the corresponding .jl files. How can I do this same thing using
"using" or "import" ? I tried to use it as I was using "require" and it is
not working as expected.

Thanks for your help and sorry for the dumb question.

If MyModule.jl is on your LOAD_PATH,

@everywhere import MyModule

should work. You can add

push!(LOAD_PATH,"/my/code/repository")

to your .juliarc.jl file.

This has been deprecated because of precompilation; it was felt that the
string version left it too ambiguous about whether you wanted to load the raw
file or the cached version.

Best,
--Tim
