Paul's eventual acquiescence to my version on puppet-dev didn't make it to the ticket. ---------------------------------------- Feature #5027: Issue warnings when using dynamic scope https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/5027 Author: Paul Berry Status: Ready for Checkin Priority: Normal Assignee: Markus Roberts Category: language Target version: Statler Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: http://github.com/MarkusQ/puppet/tree/ticket/next/5027 This ticket captures a decision made on the developer mailing list on Oct 12 (see email thread "Questions about variable scope"). In Puppet version 2.7, a deprecation warning should be issued whenever a variable reference takes place or a resource default is applied as a result of dynamic scoping. Dynamic scoping means that variables and resource defaults defined in class A also take effect in classes that A includes. The warning should advise users that this feature will be removed in a future version of Puppet, so they should start using other puppet features (such as parameterized classes) to achieve the desired effect. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
