Subject: Inconsistency in object creation
Not sure if this is a bug, or only a documentation issue, but I noticed a slight inconsistency of behaviour when creating a NetAddr::IP object with an empty string and/or undef address. # perl -MNetAddr::IP -E 'say $NetAddr::IP::VERSION;say NetAddr::IP->new(undef,"255.255.255.0")' 4.075 0.0.0.0/24 # perl -MNetAddr::IP -E 'say $NetAddr::IP::VERSION;say NetAddr::IP->new("","255.255.255.0")' 4.075 On an older version (4.027) supplying undef, or empty string makes no difference, and always returns undef # perl -MNetAddr::IP -E 'say $NetAddr::IP::VERSION;say NetAddr::IP->new(undef,"255.255.255.0")' 4.027 # perl -MNetAddr::IP -E 'say $NetAddr::IP::VERSION;say NetAddr::IP->new("","255.255.255.0")' 4.027 I guess that this issue is related to #75976
