Bug #9518: Array scope different from string scope:
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/9518
Author: Zach Leslie
Status: Accepted
Priority: Normal
Assignee:

Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.1
Keywords:
Branch:
The following code:
<pre>
$var=["top"]
class test1 {
$var+=["test1"]
}
class test2 {
$var+=["test2"]
notice("Top: $::var Test1: ${test1::var} Test2: ${test2::var}")
}
class{ "test1": }
class{ "test2": }
</pre>
produces:
<pre>
notice: Scope(Class[Test2]): Top: top Test1: toptest1 Test2: toptest2
</pre>
If the array is changed to a string as such:
<pre>
$var="top"
class test1 {
$var+="test1"
}
class test2 {
$var+="test2"
notice("Top: $::var Test1: ${test1::var} Test2: ${test2::var}")
}
class{ "test1": }
class{ "test2": }
</pre>
The behavior changes.
<pre>
notice: Scope(Class[Test2]): Top: toptest1test2 Test1: toptest1test2 Test2:
toptest1test2
</pre>
This appears to be inconsistent scoping and should be fixed. I've been
informed that its been around for a long time. Tested on 2.7.1 and 2.7.4.
