[Chris Spence (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Chris Spence created an issue   Puppet / PUP-5841 Environment string matching in the parser seems broken Issue Type: Bug Affects Versions: PUP 4.3.2 Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/02/09 4:26 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Chris Spence Using the following puppet code in puppet 4.3.2 the expectation that with the default environment of 'production' the conditional should match is not met, and the first notice doesn't happen. The second notice where environment is coerced to a string via interpolation does: notice("double colon environment ${::environment}") notice("environment ${environment}") $foo = inline_template("<%= @environment.inspect %>")   notice("environment dot inspect '${foo}'")   if $::environment == 'production' { notice('production - wooooo') } if "${::environment}" == 'production' { notice("man - you really shouldn't have to coerce me to make me do these things") } This seems to have been introduced by https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/commit/14b138a14740bb9b7931a050e822543a98ef02f6 according to my git bisect: spenceware:puppet fids$ bundle exec puppet apply -e 'notice(inline_template("<%= @environment.inspect %>"))' WARN: Unresolved specs during Gem::Specification.reset: facter (< 4, > 2.0) hiera (< 4, >= 2.0) json_pure (>= 0) WARN: Clearing out unresolved specs.
