Resetting ERD2WModel

Dear Wonderites,

Our App. is quite rule-based, and we are adding new ones all the  
time. It would greatly reduce the turn-around time for development if  
we could reset the ERD2WModel during development, so we don't have to  
re-start the App every time we edit rules (using the great  
RuleModeler, btw!).

So, I created a simple component, which appears on all pages in  
development, and which simply calls 'ERD2WModel.erDefaultModel 
().resetModel()' when clicked, which I thought should do the trick.

This only partially works, as I found out when testing it. Simple  
rules, e.g. *true* => testRule = "Hello World", will work if the rhs  
is changed. More complex rules, e.g. (task='edit') and  
(entity.name='DummyEntity') => componentName = 'EditDummyEntity' don't.

I noticed, on browsing the ERD2WModel code for 'resetModel', that the  
calls to 'invalidateCaches()' and 'resetRules()' are commented out,  
so I think that (but not 100% sure) although the new rule files are  
correctly re-loaded, there are rules still in the cache which get  
fired instead of the new ones. Is there a reason for this, or am I  
barking up the wrong tree?

Any help appreciated.

Regards,
