Maximum Number of Modules
========================
{{#include ../links.md}}
Rhai by default does not limit how many [modules] can be loaded via [`import`] statements.
This can be changed via the `Engine::set_max_modules` method. Notice that setting the maximum number
of modules to zero does _not_ indicate unlimited modules, but disallows loading any module altogether.
A script attempting to load more than the maximum number of modules will terminate with an error result.
This limit can also be used to stop [`import`-loops][`import`] (i.e. cycles of modules referring to each other).
This check can be disabled via the [`unchecked`] feature for higher performance
(but higher risks as well).
```rust
let mut engine = Engine::new();
engine.set_max_modules(5); // allow loading only up to 5 modules
engine.set_max_modules(0); // disallow loading any module (maximum = zero)
engine.set_max_modules(1000); // set to a large number for effectively unlimited modules
```
