A common issue with new resource implementations is not considering parts
of a complex structure that's used inside a set, which causes quirky
behavior.
The schema helper has enough information to provide a default reasonable
implementation of a set function that includes all non-computed attributes
in a deterministic way. Here we implement such a function and use it
when no explicit hashing function is provided.
In order to achieve this we encapsulate the construction of the zero
value for a schema in a new method schema.ZeroValue, which allows us to
put the fallback logic to the new default function in a single spot.
It is no longer valid to use &Set{F: schema.Set} and all uses of that
construct should be replaced with schema.ZeroValue().(*Set) .
- Users
- Groups
- Roles
- Inline policies for the above three
- Instance profiles
- Managed policies
- Access keys
This is most of the data types provided by IAM. There are a few things
missing, but the functionality here is probably sufficient for 95% of
the cases. Makes a dent in #28.
Currently the `sync.Once` call is only used to init a Set in the add()
func. So when you add a value to a Set that is the result of one of the
Set operations (i.e. union, difference, intersect) the Set will be
reinitialised and the exiting values will be lost.
I don’t have a clue why this is showing up in my ACC tests just now, as
this code is in there for quite some time already. Somehow it seems to
have something to do with the refactoring of the helper/schema done
last week, as I cannot reproduce this with
