Issue #12577 has been updated by Chris Price. Description updated
---------------------------------------- Bug #12577: Append operator in defines https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/12577#change-54671 Author: Roland Kaminski Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: language Target version: Affected Puppet version: 2.6.2 Keywords: append scope define Branch: Hi, recently we were trying to assemble a file made of different parts. We stumbled upon, in my opinion, strange behavior of the append operator. The example below produces two different files with different content. From what I gather from the language guide both files should contain the string "foo" but the second file does not. We are using the debian-squeeze version of the puppet client and master (I do not have a newer version at hand to test whether this has already been addressed. Note that exchanging the define with a class and then including class bar would result in two files with the string "foobar". The language guide is unclear about such cases too. <pre> class foo { $foo = "foo" define bar () { $foo::foo += "bar" } bar { "bar": } file { "/root/foo": content => "$foo"; "/root/foobar": content => $foo; } } </pre> -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
