Hello,
I like to use selectors like this in a few locations:
$shell = $operatingsystem ? {
   ''freebsd'' => ''/usr/local/bin/bash'',
   default => ''/bin/bash'',
}
However it appears broken if I use an array value as my selection criteria:
$info = [ "acrews", "Adam", "/bin/bash" ]
$shell = $info[2] ? {
   /bin/ => $info[2],
   default => "/sbin/nologin",
}
I get: Syntax error at ''?''; expected ''}
If I do this it works:
$info = [ "acrews", "Adam", "/bin/bash" ]
$AA = $info[2]
$shell => $AA ? {
  /bin/ => $info[2],
  default => "/sbin/nologin",
}
This is just an example, I actually populate $info from an extlookup
in a define that returns basically the same array.
Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?
Thanks
-Adam

You should just report it, if it turns out to be a feature instead ;-) the devs will probably tell you so.

I filed bug #5860 yesterday, and now that I search around a little more I think it may be the same as bug #5516. -Adam -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
