Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question(3)

Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question - Resource Handler

  DO NOT use Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question
  DO NOT require Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question

  Net::DNS::ToolKit::Question is autoloaded by
  class Net::DNS::ToolKit::RR and its methods
  are instantiated in a 'special' manner.

  • ($newoff,$name,$type,$class) = $get->Question(\$buffer,$offset);

    Get question from $buffer. Returns the expanded name, type and class.

      input:        pointer to buffer,
                    offset into buffer
      returns:      new offset,
                    expanded name,
                    type,
                    class
        
  • ($newoff,@dnptrs) = $put->Question(\$buffer,$offset, $name,$type,$class,\@dnptrs);

    Append a question to the $buffer. Returns a new pointer array for compressed names and the offset to the next RR.

    NOTE: it is up to the user to update the question count. See: put_qdcount

    Since the question usually is the first record to be appended to the buffer, @dnptrs may be ommitted. See the details at dn_comp.

    Usage: ($newoff,@dnptrs)=$put->Question(\$buffer,$offset, $name,$type,$class);

      input:        pointer to buffer,
                    offset into buffer,
                    domain name,
                    question type,
                    question class,
                    pointer to array of
                      previously compressed names,
      returns:      offset to next record,
                    updated array of offsets to
                      previous compressed names
        
  • ($name,$typeTXT,$classTXT) = $parse->Question($name,$type,$class);

    Convert non-printable and numeric data into ascii text.

      input:        domain name,
                    question type (numeric)
                    question class (numeric)
      returns:      domain name,
                    type TEXT,
                    class TEXT
        

        Net::DNS::ToolKit

        none
