Evidently you have not understood the advice for which you are giving
thanks, because it was to NOT DO THAT. Instead, do this:
file { 'bar':
# initial uppercase name components:
require => A::Foo['baz']
}
Note there that
1. EACH name component in a resource reference must be capitalized (i.e.
both the 'A' and the 'Foo'), and
2. the name component separator is a double colon (::), not a single
colon.
In addition, the actual names of modules, classes, and resource types
should begin with *lowercase* letters, so that resource references (which
use capital letters) are distinguished from other uses of class and
resource names. Thus, you should not have any module named "A"; rather, it
should be named "a". Your definitions should thus have the form
# initial lowercase letters:
define a::foo(...) {
#...
}
The autoloader will expect to find that definition in <module
path>/a/manifests/foo.pp, where in principle case matters, but in practice
that depends on the filesystem.
