Bug #15264: Custom title patterns can fail cryptically
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/15264

Author: Adrien Thebo
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee: 
Category: 
Target version: 2.7.18
Affected Puppet version: 2.7.17
Keywords: composite namevar custom title_patterns parse_title
Branch: 


If a type uses a composite namevar and none of the supplied title patterns 
matched, #parse_title will unintentionally return the output of 
#title_patterns. This would lead to unexpected behavior like output like:

    /usr/lib/ruby/1.8/puppet/puppet/resource.rb:235:in `to_hash': undefined 
method `merge' for #<Array:0x007ffba3d80d78> (NoMethodError)

Handling this case and failing deliberately would seem to be a better response.
