On this particular link http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/variables.html#variables I am a bit confused about the following two statement. Could someone explain to me as to what is this about, with a simple example ?
Every variable has a short local name and a long fully-qualified name. Fully qualified variables look like $scope::variable. Top scope variables are the same, but their scope is nameless. (For example: $::top_scope_variable.) If you reference a variable with its short name and it isn’t present in the local scope, Puppet will also check the top scope;1<http://docs.puppetlabs.com/learning/variables.html#fn:dynamic>this means you can almost always refer to global variables with just their short names. -- Regards, Balasubramaniam Natarajan www.etutorshop.com/moodle/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Puppet Users" group.
