The current code is done SPECIFICALLY to ensure that on reload that you re-read the table structure from the database, since the config file specifies a MINIMUM of the elements necessary.  As structured, this patch INTRODUCES a bug, since it fails to re-read the database on reload.

This is not to say that the concept couldn't be done, but this patch is fatally flawed as written.

Sorry, you are right, I didn't read the documentation in the .conf saying that a reload is only needed to re-read the table schema. What I was thinking was to leave that to a module unload/load.
I will rework my patch.

hmm, I think the only way of doing this is:
1- marking every 'entry' in every 'table' as old.
2- Going throw the table schema and updating every 'entry' type in the memory structure and adding new columns.
3- Going throw the memory structure and destroying every 'entry' not updated (marked as old).

If this is the only way we don't gain to match not parsing the config file and doing all this stuff.

That is precisely why I didn't do that in the first place.

Ok, You could close this issue, I make a mistake here. Sorry
