From d3bbd3cbf89cb23bce4e55c3828e17c05c4cfd70 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nick Walker Date: Thu, 1 Dec 2016 05:54:08 -0800 Subject: Indicate that the type function is preferred (#695) Prior to this commit, users coming to the type_of function would not realize that the type function in puppet does the same thing and is preferred over type_of. After this commit, we have a comment indicating the above. --- lib/puppet/functions/type_of.rb | 2 ++ 1 file changed, 2 insertions(+) (limited to 'lib') diff --git a/lib/puppet/functions/type_of.rb b/lib/puppet/functions/type_of.rb index 02cdd4d..01f1f49 100644 --- a/lib/puppet/functions/type_of.rb +++ b/lib/puppet/functions/type_of.rb @@ -10,6 +10,8 @@ # See the documentation for "The Puppet Type System" for more information about types. # See the `assert_type()` function for flexible ways to assert the type of a value. # +# The built-in type() function in puppet is generally preferred over this function +# this function is provided for backwards compatibility.
