Dynamic Method Handling

This class handles dynamic methods through the method_missing method

#method_missing(symbol, *args) ⇒ Object

Only works for attribute fetches, setting is no longer supported

# File 'lib/chef/node.rb', line 225

  attributes.send(symbol, *args)

#override_runlist(*args) ⇒ Object

  @recipe_list
end

#run_context ⇒ Object

RunContext will set itself as run_context via this setter when initialized. This is needed so DSL::IncludeAttribute (in particular, #include_recipe) can access the run_context to determine if an attributes file has been seen yet. – TODO: This is a pretty ugly way to solve that problem.
