Issue #4496 has been updated by Jesse Wolfe. Affected version set to 2.6.0
---------------------------------------- Bug #4496: module_name variable not consistently set http://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4496 Author: Paul Berry Status: Accepted Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: 2.6.x Affected version: 2.6.0 Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/reductivelabs/puppet/tree/next With this directory structure: modules/foo/manifests/init.pp: <pre> class foo { notify {"foo (inside module $module_name)": } } class foo::bar { notify {"foo::bar (inside module $module_name)": } } </pre> init1.pp: <pre> include foo </pre> init2.pp: <pre> include foo::bar </pre> init3.pp: <pre> include foo include foo::bar </pre> When running "puppet --modulepath modules init1.pp", we get the output: <pre> notice: foo (inside module foo) notice: /Stage[main]/Foo/Notify[foo (inside module foo)]/message: defined 'message' as 'foo (inside module foo)' </pre> This is expected, since $module_name refers to the name of the module that the class "foo" is defined in, namely, "foo". When running "puppet --modulepath modules init2.pp", we get the output: <pre> notice: foo::bar (inside module foo) notice: /Stage[main]/Foo::Bar/Notify[foo::bar (inside module foo)]/message: defined 'message' as 'foo::bar (inside module foo)' </pre> Again, this is expected. The functionality of $module_name doesn't depend on whether we are including module foo directly or some subclass defined within it. However, when running "puppet --modulepath modules init3.pp", we get unexpected output: <pre> notice: foo::bar (inside module ) notice: /Stage[main]/Foo::Bar/Notify[foo::bar (inside module )]/message: defined 'message' as 'foo::bar (inside module )' notice: foo (inside module foo) notice: /Stage[main]/Foo/Notify[foo (inside module foo)]/message: defined 'message' as 'foo (inside module foo)' </pre> The reference to $module_name within foo::bar has mysteriously stopped working. This bug only applies to version 2.6 since the $module_name feature did not exist in previous releases. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
