RE: Team! Help a newbie with $t->print("ls"); which fails.

[Yacketta, Ronald]

for starters $t is local to func1 via the usage of my

my ($forecast, $t);

secondly you could either declare $t as a global var or pass it to func2

I have 2 functions. in func1 $t->print(); works fine. 

but func1 got too long and I created func2 to continue on 

$t->print(); statements. but $t->print(); of func2 does not work (perl interpreter 
does not know what $t is).

so!, how can I associate $t in func2 to $t in func1,

and continue on $t->print(); statements?

I'm always grateful for your input.       

Code follows.

Marco.

 

sub func1 {

            my ($forecast, $t);

            use Net::Telnet ();

            $t = new Net::Telnet;

            $t->open("$ip"); 

 

            $t->waitfor('/login: /');

            $t->print("jeff");  

            $t->waitfor('/password: *$/i');

            $t->print("papa");

            $t-> waitfor( '/\-\> *$/i' ) ;

            $t-> prompt( '/\-\> *$/i' ) ;

                        

            $t->print("pwd");

            ($forecast) = $t->waitfor('/\->/i');

            print $forecast;

 

#above $t->print("pwd"); works fine and prints the result.

}

 

sub func2 {

            $t->print("ls");

            ($forecast) = $t->waitfor('/\->/i');

            print $forecast;

 

#this $t->print("ls"); does not work.

#interpreter complains.

}
#End
