Issue #22362 has been updated by Melissa Stone. Status changed from Merged - Pending Release to Closed
Released in Puppet 3.4.0-rc1 ---------------------------------------- Bug #22362: Changes in const_defined?() on ruby 1.9 break Puppet::Util::Classgen https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/22362#change-100376 * Author: Paweł Tomulik * Status: Closed * Priority: Normal * Assignee: * Category: ruby19 * Target version: 3.4.0 * Affected Puppet version: * Keywords: const_defined? ruby 1.9 1.8 classgen :parent Puppet::Type inheritance * Branch: https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet/pull/1864 ---------------------------------------- I have this example: #lib/puppet/type/packagex.rb module Puppet newtype(:packagex, :parent => Puppet::Type.type(:package)) do end end # lib/puppet/provider/packagex/ports.rb Puppet::Type.type(:packagex).provide :ports, :parent => Puppet::Type.type(:package).provider(:ports) do end # test.rb $LOAD_PATH.unshift('/var/puppet/lib') require 'puppet' Puppet::Type.type(:packagex) Running 'ruby test.rb' fails on ruby >=1.9 with the following exception: /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9/puppet/util/autoload.rb:68:in `rescue in load_file': Could not autoload puppet/type/packagex: Could not autoload puppet/provider/packagex/ports: constant Puppet::Type::Packagex::ProviderPorts not defined (Puppet::Error) from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9/puppet/util/autoload.rb:59:in `load_file' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9/puppet/util/autoload.rb:201:in `load' from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9/puppet/metatype/manager.rb:159:in `type' from /tmp/test.rb:4:in `<main>' The problem appears, when using `newtype` with `:parent` argument. I've tracked down the problem and found that the exception is raised from `Puppet::Util::Classgen.rmclass()`. The method uses `const_defined?()` whose behavior [changed in ruby 1.9](http://makandracards.com/makandra/14699-module-const_defined-behaves-differently-in-ruby-1-9-and-ruby-1-8). I've already fix for this and will create PR on github. -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
