ares_parse_ns_reply - Parse a reply to a DNS query of type NS into a hostent
#include <ares.h>
int ares_parse_ns_reply(const unsigned char *abuf, int alen, struct hostent **host);
The ares_parse_ns_reply function parses the response to a query of type NS into a struct hostent . The parameters abuf and alen give the contents of the response. The result is stored in allocated memory and a pointer to it stored into the variable pointed to by host . The nameservers are stored into the aliases field of the host structure. It is the caller's responsibility to free the resulting host structure using ares_free_hostent (3) when it is no longer needed.
ares_parse_ns_reply can return any of the following values:
ARES_SUCCESS The response was successfully parsed.
ARES_EBADRESP The response was malformatted.
ARES_ENODATA The response did not contain an answer to the query.
ARES_ENOMEM Memory was exhausted.
ares_query (3) ares_free_hostent (3)
