Issue #18510 has been updated by Kristof Willaert.
Errm,
the class definition should of course look like:
class bla ($foo = '$MSG foo') {
notice("foo: ${foo}")
}
Sorry for the mixup.
Kind regards,

Bug #18510: Inconsistent handling of single quoted class/define parameters with
dollar signs
https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/18510#change-81353
Author: Kristof Willaert
Status: Unreviewed
Priority: Normal
Assignee:
Category: compiler
Target version:
Affected Puppet version: 3.0.2
Keywords:
Branch:
I seem to have run into some undesired behaviour when passing single quoted
strings as class parameters, when these contain dollar signs.
I do not want these to be expanded, just passed as is to a template, as they
are syntax for a configuration file (in casu syslog-ng).
When they are passed explicitly, they seem to be interpreted. When passed as
default value for the parameter, they are not.
The behaviour of defined types is identical.
Trivial class example:
class bla { $foo = '$MSG foo':
notice("foo: ${foo}")
}
When run with the default values, things are fine:
$ puppet apply --modulepath . -e "class { 'bla': } "
notice: Scope(Class[Bla]): foo: $MSG foo
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.08 seconds
When passing the parameter value explicitly, the "variable" is expanded (to an
empty string) even though the string is single quoted:
$ puppet apply --modulepath . -e "class { 'bla': foo => '$BAR baz' } "
notice: Scope(Class[Bla]): foo: baz
notice: Finished catalog run in 0.07 seconds
Tested on both 2.7.19 and 3.0.2.
Is this a bug or just me being dense ?
