Issue #16373 has been reported by Henrik Lindberg. ---------------------------------------- Feature #16373: Improve validation of Numbers https://projects.puppetlabs.com/issues/16373
Author: Henrik Lindberg Status: Unreviewed Priority: Normal Assignee: Category: Target version: Affected Puppet version: Keywords: Branch: Currently, the style guide states that numeric values should be stated using single quoted strings, i.e. that file mode, should be expressed as '0ooo' (o being an octal digit). IMO, this is backwards; it would be far better if bare words that starts with a digit always validated as numeric; there is no way that can be done when expressed as a string. I propose that '0WTF', '0xWTF', and '123a' are legal, but not 0WTF (not octal), 0xWTF (not hex), nor 123a (not decimal). -- You have received this notification because you have either subscribed to it, or are involved in it.
