Issue #8384 has been updated by Jacob Helwig. Status changed from Accepted to Rejected
Turns out settings.rb already has a way to override the heuristics. ---------------------------------------- Refactor #8384: Do not attempt to autodetect setting type in lib/puppet/util/settings.rb https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/8384 Author: Jacob Helwig Status: Rejected Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Telly Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: `lib/puppet/util/settings.rb` attempts to determine the "type" of the setting using heuristics. The type should be specified in `defaults.rb` when the setting is defined, with a fall-back of being a simple string. The heuristics are currently causing a problem if we wish to change the default value of a setting based on platform, where this would cause the detected type of the setting to change. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
