Jira (PUP-6463) Second parameter is evaluated first

[Josh Samuelson (JIRA)]

Title: Message Title

Josh Samuelson created an issue   Puppet / PUP-6463 Second parameter is evaluated first Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Unassigned Created: 2016/06/30 12:56 PM Priority: Normal Reporter: Josh Samuelson I ran into this error trying to include a PE profile class that happened to inherit a class that was already defined in the PE console. This is the minimal repro of the root issue. Given the following site.pp: class breaking ( String $first, String $second = $first, ){}   node default { include breaking } The expected error would be that the required parameter is missing. But instead the following error happens: Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 400 on SERVER: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, default _expression_ for $second tries to illegally access not yet evaluated $first at /etc/puppetlabs/code/environments/production/manifests/site.pp:31:3 on node master.puppetlabs.vm To repro the original issue, start with a stock PE master and add `include puppet_enterprise::profile::mcollective::peadmin` to the default node group. The unnecessary inheritance caused that issue, but the error message pointed to the root issue in puppet with the parameter evaluation order.
