Puppet users - Feb 2007 - Scope question

If I do something like the following:

class blah {

  File { mode => 111 }

  file { "/cheese": }
}

Will the File override stay within the class or break outside?

Also, if I then do:

class moo inherits blah {

  File { owner => bob }

  file { "/bobsfile": }
}

What will happen?

Thanks,

Trevor

It''ll stay inside the class.

This is easily testable, but it''ll get the owner from the moo class  
and *should* get the mode from blah but that''s apparently currently  
broken in 0.22.1.

Ah, that answers my questions.

I was expecting the *should* case, so I thought that I might be doing
something wrong.

Thanks!
