Hello, i am implementing my first dynamic Resource. It looks to me that the type of any dynamic resource is hard coded to : `pulumi-nodejs:dynamic:Resource` . This generate duplicate resouce URN when the name of 2 different resource are the same . Is there a way to fix this ?

You should subclass that, and pass in your own type string as the 2nd parameter to the constructor

i am not sure which class to subclass, do you have a short example <@U012UJTT55M>

I can't find one in the examples repo. Here's one from the docs: <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/#authoring-a-new-component-resource>

It's a single-line example, but that's because it really is that simple...

That example is for a component resource, but the same applies to resources created by dynamic providers. E.g.; <https://www.pulumi.com/docs/intro/concepts/resources/#dynamic-resource-inputs>

Aha! Found an actual example: <https://github.com/pulumi/examples/blob/9cb12a7fac28f229fb73736e197a85264ff12b7c/classic-azure-ts-dynamicresource/cdnCustomDomain.ts#L301>

The `pulumi.dynamic.Resource` class is subclassed, and the 2nd parameter (name) is where the type info goes (line 301). Not sure why it was done this way, instead of with a type and name like in component resources...
