Title: Message Title

Daniel Dreier created an issue   Puppet / PUP-5895 puppet parser validate fails for functions Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Components: Language Created: 2016/02/12 1:40 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Daniel Dreier The following is valid puppet code in puppet 4, and will run using a puppet apply, but fails a puppet parser validate: function validate_this() { notice('hello, puppet') }   validate_this() Using puppet apply, I get: $ puppet apply testcase.pp Notice: Scope(Class[main]): hello, puppet Notice: Compiled catalog for macbook.whilefork.com in environment production in 0.03 seconds Notice: Applied catalog in 0.02 seconds When I attempt to validate it: puppet parser validate testcase.pp Error: Internal Error: Puppet Context ':loaders' missing - cannot define any functions We use puppet parser validate in our CI to validate that all .pp files are valid puppet code, so this makes it more difficult to validate puppet code now that we're starting to use functions defined in the puppet language. I've validated that this occurs on puppet 4.3.2 on OS X and puppet 4.2.3 on CentOS 7.
