return to preprocessing deferred functions by default#462
Merged

Conversation
In #f939846, the default was changed to evaluate deferred functions lazily so that any function requirements could be installed during the same enforcement run. Unfortunately, type of object expected by parameters is too baked into the entire codebase -- including many third party type/providers that we have no control over. This commit changes the default back to preprocessing prior to the catalog enforcement. Future work is needed in order to handle function failures more gracefully, which would allow a partial catalog application to install prerequisistes and a second application to finish the full configuration enforcement.
