Issue #4939 has been updated by Dan Bode.
We should promote consistent code when possible. The resource in the provider class is accessible either as an instance variable or from the reader method. Accessing it from the reader method is preferable because it's easier to stub a method than it is to stub an instance variable. ---------------------------------------- Refactor #4939: providers should refer to resource method not @resource https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/4939 Author: Dan Bode Status: Needs more information Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.1 Branch: This makes it possible to stub out the resource method for testing. running: <pre> grep -r @resource puppet/provider/* </pre> shows that many providers need to be refactored -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
