Title: Message Title

Henrik Lindberg created an issue   Puppet / PUP-2587 circular inheritance causes stack too deep error Issue Type: Bug Assignee: Andy Parker Components: DSL Created: 16/May/14 5:51 AM Fix Versions: 4.0.0 Priority: Normal Reporter: Henrik Lindberg if a node or a class inherits in such a way that the result is circular, the result is a "stack too deep" error without any additional information. This is caused by by "instantiate_resource" because it does not check if it is already processing a parent entity. class foo inherits foo { } This occurs in both 3x parser and in future parser. This can not be statically validated.
