Live reload for extension code?

[ls-bit]

Hi,

we have some custom quarkus extensions in our codebase that only provide some additional bean build items. We noticed that live reload is only triggered when main application code changes and then only main application code is reloaded. Extension code is never reloaded, which is a bit annoying when developing extensions.

The docs at https://quarkus.io/guides/writing-extensions#integrating-with-development-mode do not seem to cover this, or i am misunderstanding it.

Is there a way to reload the code of an extension? Or is this an expected limitation?

It is a known limitation currently.
