Unable to run a configuration that imports MultiClassNestedModulesSameDir

[StephenTung-CR]

Thanks for posting the answer on stackoverflow about using multiple class based dsc resources with only one module .

I'd like to incorporate this to my project but have no luck when I imported it to my configuration. Have you tried it and got it to work before?

This is what I did to test it:

1) I copied your directory to C:\windows\program files\windowspowershell\modules

2) I created a configuration

configuration test 
{
    Import-DscResource -ModuleName MultiClassesNestedModulesSameDir

    node localhost {
        LocalConfigurationManager
        {
            RefreshMode = "Push"
            DebugMode = "All"
        }

        NestedA nested {
            path = "C:\temp\"
        }
    }
}

test -verbose

Start-DscConfiguration test -wait -force -verbose

3) Ran the configuration and got this error: Failed to create an object of PowerShell class NestedA

PS C:\git\powershell-sandbox> .\configurationWithMultipleDscResourceInOneModule.ps1

Any clue what might be wrong with what I'm doing?

I'm on Powershell 5.0.10586.122.

Thanks again.

Looks like he found out that it is not working. See > Issue on StackOverFlow

@nitinbps please invalidate the code in this repo. so that people do not try it out 👍 thank you.
