Bug #4748: Variable scope confusing when including subclasses
http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4748
Author: Felix Frank
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category:
Target version:
Affected version:
Keywords: variables, scope, inheritance
Branch:
When including a class that inherits another, variables used only in the
inheriting class still seem to be scoped to the context of the original include
of the base class.
<pre>
class base {
file{"/tmp/foo": content => "base"}
}
class foo inherits base {
notify{$variable:}
File["/tmp/foo"] { content => $variable }
}
class special {
$variable = "special"
include foo
}
include base
include special
</pre>
With thanks to Volcane for the cleaned up example code.
Reproduced with versions 0.25.5 and 2.6.1rc4.
