The correct way is to put all of the code in the classes, each class  
in the appriately named file, and then import all of the files.   
E.g., the 'mysql' class would be defined in the 'mysql.pp' file.

Really, unless you're using modules I recommend putting these all  
into a classes/ subdirectory, and then just doing 'import "classes/ 
*"' or something similar.

But the key point is to put the code for that class within the class  
definition, rather than unencapsulated in a file.
