Yes. You can do it in a general way (i.e. without the restrictions in form
imposed by create_resources()) by relying on array-titled resources. You
also need a function to extract the keys of a hash into an array, such as
the keys() function available in PuppetLabs "stdlib" add-in module. Then
you do something like this:
class modulename ($filecontent) {
$filenames = keys($filecontent)
modulename::file { $filenames: }
}
define modulename::file () {
$mycontent = $modulename::filecontent[$title]
# do something with my content
}
