Diagnosing reloading problems

The reloading process is quite complicated. A lot of bytecode is transformed as an application is loaded, not just application classes but system classes and other dependent classes in frameworks and libraries.

Turning on explain mode or verbose mode (see Basic usage information) may help you understand why something is misbehaving but once you get into turning on verbose you probably need to raise a github issue and attach any useful info you learn from the verbose trace. Or even better include a testcase as the user did here: Issue 34 - submitted testcases are invaluable.
