< p > cdist has a simple but powerful way of allowing communication between
the initial manifest and types as well as types and types.< / p >
< p > Whenever execution is passed from cdist to one of the
scripts described below, cdist generate 2 new temporary files
and exports the environment variables < strong > __messages_in< / strong > and
< strong > __messages_out< / strong > to point to them.< / p >
< p > Before handing over the control, the content of the global message
file is copied into the file referenced by < strong > $__messages_in< / strong > .< / p >
< p > After cdist gained control back, the content of the file referenced
by < strong > $__messages_out< / strong > is appended to the global message file.< / p >
< p > This way overwriting any of the two files by accident does not
interfere with other types.< / p >
< p > The order of execution is not defined unless you create dependencies
between the different objects (see < a class = "reference external" href = "cdist-manifest.html" > cdist manifest< / a > ) and thus you
can only react reliably on messages by objects that you depend on.< / p >
