Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse - DNS recursive resolver
use Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse;
$resolver = new Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse();
$packet = $resolver->query ( 'www.example.com', 'A' );
$packet = $resolver->search( 'www.example.com', 'A' );
$packet = $resolver->send ( 'www.example.com', 'A' );
This module is a subclass of Net::DNS::Resolver.
This module inherits almost all the methods from Net::DNS::Resolver. Additional
module-specific methods are described below.
This method specifies a list of the IP addresses of nameservers to be used to
discover the addresses of the root nameservers.
$resolver->hints(@ip);
If no hints are passed, the priming query is directed to nameservers drawn from
a built-in list of IP addresses.
The
query(),
search() and
send() methods produce the same
result as their counterparts in Net::DNS::Resolver.
$packet = $resolver->send( 'www.example.com.', 'A' );
Server-side recursion is suppressed by clearing the recurse flag in query
packets and recursive name resolution is performed explicitly.
The
query() and
search() methods are inherited from
Net::DNS::Resolver and invoke
send() indirectly.
This method specifies a code reference to a subroutine, which is then invoked at
each stage of the recursive lookup.
For example to emulate dig's "+trace" function:
my $coderef = sub {
my $packet = shift;
printf ";; Received %d bytes from %s\n\n",
$packet->answersize, $packet->answerfrom;
};
$resolver->callback($coderef);
The callback subroutine is not called for queries for missing glue records.
This package is an improved and compatible reimplementation of the
Net::DNS::Resolver::Recurse.pm created by Rob Brown in 2002, whose
contribution is gratefully acknowledged.
