ldns(3) Library Functions Manual ldns(3) NAME ldns_pkt_new, ldns_pkt_free, ldns_pkt_print, ldns_pkt_query_new, ldns_pkt_query_new_frm_str, ldns_pkt_reply_type - ldns_pkt creation, destruction and printing SYNOPSIS #include #include #include ldns_pkt* ldns_pkt_new(void); void ldns_pkt_free(ldns_pkt *packet); void ldns_pkt_print(FILE *output, const ldns_pkt *pkt); ldns_pkt* ldns_pkt_query_new(ldns_rdf *rr_name, ldns_rr_type rr_type, ldns_rr_class rr_class, uint16_t flags); ldns_status ldns_pkt_query_new_frm_str(ldns_pkt **p, const char *rr_name, ldns_rr_type rr_type, ldns_rr_class rr_class , uint16_t flags); ldns_pkt_type ldns_pkt_reply_type(const ldns_pkt *p); DESCRIPTION ldns_pkt_new() allocates and initializes a ldns_pkt structure. Returns pointer to the new packet ldns_pkt_free() frees the packet structure and all data that it contains. packet: The packet structure to free Returns void ldns_pkt_print() Prints the data in the DNS packet to the given file stream (in presentation format) output: the file stream to print to pkt: the packet to print Returns void ldns_pkt_query_new() creates a packet with a query in it for the given name, type and class. rr_name: the name to query for (not copied). The returned packet will take ownership of rr_name, so the caller should not free it. rr_type: the type to query for rr_class: the class to query for flags: packet flags Returns ldns_pkt* a pointer to the new pkt ldns_pkt_query_new_frm_str() creates a query packet for the given name, type, class. p: the packet to be returned rr_name: the name to query for (as string) rr_type: the type to query for rr_class: the class to query for flags: packet flags Returns LDNS_STATUS_OK or a ldns_status mesg with the error ldns_pkt_reply_type() looks inside the packet to determine what kind of packet it is, AUTH, NXDOMAIN, REFERRAL, etc. p: the packet to examine Returns the type of packet AUTHOR The ldns team at NLnet Labs.
