instance method
require_dependency
Ruby on Rails 7.2.3.2
Since v7.0.10Signature
require_dependency(filename)
Warning: This method is obsolete. The semantics of the autoloader match Ruby’s and you do not need to be defensive with load order anymore. Just refer to classes and modules normally.
Engines that do not control the mode in which their parent application runs should call require_dependency where needed in case the runtime mode is :classic.
