Hi all,
I have some interesting behaviour with the vars menu option 'policy =>
"ifdefined"'. It seems to give some unpredictable behaviour. I'm pretty sure
I'm using it as the CF3 manual describes. See the example below:
# cat one.cf
bundle agent one {
vars:
"var_list" slist => { "one" };
}
# cat two.cf
bundle agent two {
vars:
"var_list" slist => { "two" };
}
# cat test.cf
body common control {
inputs => { "one.cf", "two.cf" };
bundlesequence => { "one", "two", "test" };
}
bundle agent test {
vars:
"list" slist => { @(one.var_list), @(two.var_list) }, policy => "ifdefined";
reports:
Yr2010::
"List contains: $(list)";
}
# cf-agent -Kf ./test.cf
R: List contains: one.cf
R: List contains: control_common
That is some very strange output. Then if you remove the "ifdefined" policy, it
behaves as you would expect:
# cat test.cf
body common control {
inputs => { "one.cf", "two.cf" };
bundlesequence => { "one", "two", "test" };
}
bundle agent test {
vars:
"list" slist => { @(one.var_list), @(two.var_list) };#, policy =>
"ifdefined";
reports:
Yr2010::
"List contains: $(list)";
}
# cf-agent -Kf ./test.cf
R: List contains: one
R: List contains: two
A possible bug? If so, how can I file it?
