Importing Module Fails First Time

[Dejulia489]

The class dependency is not defined. From what I can tell you are dependent on the following regex pattern to determine the class import order. "\s+($Name)\s*(:|requires)\s*(?\w*)".
Could you provide some documentation on your class importer?

I have an updated class importer in another project that I just need to port over that resolves this. That requires in the regex was a hack that I was using so I could add a comment to a class file to indicate what other class needed to be imported first.

The importer currently looks for these two patterns. A class definition or a comment indicating a required class.

class class1 : class2
#class class1 requires class2

This is more of an issue when importing the source psm1. The output version and the one in the PSGallery should import correctly.

My new approach parses the whole file to find every class reference and builds a dependency map, then imports everything in order. That approach does not need the requires comment hack.
