For historical reasons, errors from evaluating unknown or NULL values were handled on the server side rather than on the client side.
https://github.com/terraform-linters/tflint/blob/v0.45.0/plugin/server.go#L143-L167
But given that
EvaluateExpr
is an endpoint that returns acty.Value
, it's preferable to handle this error on the plugin side.This PR changes to skip server-side error handling when the plugin's SDK is v0.16+. This is an internal change and has no end-user impact.
