[Henrik Lindberg (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Henrik Lindberg created an issue   Puppet / PUP-5902 Type mismatch describer should expand aliases Issue Type: Improvement Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/02/15 6:20 AM Priority: Normal Reporter: Henrik Lindberg When a type mismatch occurs against a type alias, the type alias is reported as expected, and then the value is shown. This means that it is hard for the user to understand what is wrong without searching for documentation of that type alias. The type mismatch explainer needs to include the alias expansion. [code:puppet} alias OhDeer = Enum[rudolph, asher, dancer, prancer, vixen, comet, cupid, dunder, blixem,] function pull_sled(OhDeer $a_deer) { } pull_sled('blixen') If you like most, do not remember all of Santa's raindeers, you need to see the enum expanded to learn how to spell 'blixem' Add Comment   This message was sent by Atlassian JIRA (v6.4.12#64027-sha1:e3691cc) -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Bugs" group.
