AMAZING! ---------------------------------------- Feature #14101: Improve dynamic scope deprecation warning https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/14101#change-61071 Author: Andrew Parker Status: In Topic Branch Pending Review Priority: Normal Assignee: Andrew Parker Category: usability Target version: 2.7.14 Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/696 The deprecation warning for dynamic scope currently reads: Dynamic lookup of $#{name}#{location} is deprecated. Support will be removed in a later version of Puppet. Use a fully-qualified variable name (e.g., $classname::variable) or parameterized classes. Where `location` is location = (options[:file] && options[:line]) ? " at #{options[:file]}:#{options[:line]}" : '' This doesn't provide enough information in order to understand what the difference actually is. Ideally we could say exactly where the values that were found came from, but the scope doesn't keep track of that kind of information. A good substitute would be to provide the different values that were found. The new deprecation warning could read: Dynamic lookup of $#{name}#{location} is deprecated. Support will be removed in a later version of Puppet. Use a fully-qualified variable name (e.g., $classname::variable) or parameterized classes.
