When using errmode == return and calling cmd() in list context and an error is
detected during command processing, Net::Telnet:::Cisco will return
$VAR1 = [ undef ];
instead of an empty list
$VAR1 = [];
However perldoc Net::Telnet states
When mode is "return" then the method generating the error places an
error message in the object and returns an undefined value in a scalar
context and an empty list in list context. The error message may be
obtained using "errmsg()".
And perldoc Net::Telnet::Cisco states:
Before you use Net::Telnet::Cisco, you should have a good understanding
of Net::Telnet, so read it's documentation first, and then come back
here to see the improvements.
This patch seems to fix the problem:
