2016-10-04Permit undef passed as `nil` to validate_stringDominic Cleal
When validate_string is called via the Puppet 4 deprecation wrappers from deprecation_gen (introduced in 970852d), `undef` is passed as `nil` where it was previously passed as `''` from the Puppet 3-style function API. This change explicitly permits a `nil` value in validate_string, and adds a test case to `is_string` which also accepts the same. Fixes test failures in apt, concat etc: Error while evaluating a Function Call, nil is not a string. It looks to be a NilClass at apt/manifests/source.pp:23:3 [..] # ./spec/fixtures/modules/stdlib/lib/puppet/parser/functions/validate_string.rb:34:in `block (2 levels) in <module:Functions>' # ./spec/fixtures/modules/stdlib/lib/puppet/parser/functions/validate_string.rb:32:in `each' # ./spec/fixtures/modules/stdlib/lib/puppet/parser/functions/validate_string.rb:32:in `block in <module:Functions>' # puppet-4.7.0/lib/puppet/parser/functions.rb:174:in `block (2 levels) in newfunction' # puppet-4.7.0/lib/puppet/util/profiler/around_profiler.rb:58:in `profile' # puppet-4.7.0/lib/puppet/util/profiler.rb:51:in `profile' # puppet-4.7.0/lib/puppet/parser/functions.rb:167:in `block in newfunction' # ./spec/fixtures/modules/stdlib/lib/puppet_x/puppetlabs/stdlib/deprecation_gen.rb:13:in `block (2 levels) in deprecation_gen'
