Title: Message Title

Henrik Lindberg created an issue   Puppet / PUP-2240 support unfold/splat of array Issue Type: New Feature Assignee: Andy Parker Components: DSL Created: 14/Apr/14 3:17 AM Fix Versions: 3.6.0 Priority: Normal Reporter: Henrik Lindberg Support unfold/splat operator that unfolds an array/hash as individual arguments. *value When splat operator is applied to a hash, the hash is transformed into an array of [key, value] tuples. An array is verbatim. All other values are wrapped in an array. When a Splat operation appears in an argument list (function call), and in a literal list, the array of values produced by splat are unfolded. sprintf(*["%d", 10]) # same as sprintf("%d", 10) [1,*[2,3],4] # same as [1,2,3,4] Without this, users have to do manual unfolding (i.e. $a[0], $a[1], etc), and must know the size of what is being unfolded.
