The group Statement

group {
    [ statements ]
}

The group statement collects a series of statements into a list. The default processing sections of the server (authorize, accounting, etc.) are also group statements. Those sections are given different name for management reasons, but they behave internally exactly like a group.

When a group statement is processed, all of the statements inside of the group are executed in sequence. The group statement is not normally used, as the statements within it can just be placed inside of the enclosing section. However, the group statement is included in the unlang syntax for completeness.

The contents of a group subsection can be any unlang statement.

Examples:

group {
    sql
    ldap
    file
    if (updated) {
    ...
    }
}
