Issue #1759 has been updated by jamtur01. Status changed from Unreviewed to Accepted Target version set to 0.24.7
---------------------------------------- Bug #1759: Numeric comparison does not work as expected in if statements http://projects.reductivelabs.com/issues/show/1759 Author: tmz Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assigned to: masterzen Category: language Target version: 0.24.7 Complexity: Unknown Affected version: 0.24.6 Keywords: Attempting to use the new if statements in 0.24.6, I found that numeric comparisons did not work as I would expect. An example: $operatingsystemrelease = 10 # From facter if $operatingsystemrelease > 9 # This is not true. Huh? Thinking it might be comparing the facter variable as a string, try it hardcoded: if 10 > 9 # Still not true. Odd. if 10 > 09 # This is true. So, is the comparison being done character by character or is it just doing string comparison? The examples in the documentation indicate that using numeric comparisons are intended to work (with examples like "if $ram > 1024" and "if ( $processor_count > 2 )" at http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet/wiki/LanguageTutorial#if-else). fujin posted a handy demo at http://pastie.org/318391 ---------------------------------------- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
