Example of a LWRP that uses Chef resources directly:

See the enable action.

Nice.

So, if I wanted this service to be able to notify others ( by calling new_resource.updated_by_last_action(true), right?)  how could I know if the directory, for example, got created, so I'd want to pass that notify up?  Asked another way: how do I pass along the updated status of the underlying resources if I use them in an LWRP.

Thanks for the example, it points me in the right direction, at least.
