- <title>DESCRIPTION</title>
-
- <para><function>lwres_string_parse()</function>
- retrieves a DNS-encoded string starting the current pointer of
- lightweight resolver buffer <parameter>b</parameter>: i.e.
- <constant>b-&gt;current</constant>. When the function returns,
- the address of the first byte of the encoded string is returned
- via <parameter>*c</parameter> and the length of that string is
- given by <parameter>*len</parameter>. The buffer's current
- pointer is advanced to point at the character following the
- string length, the encoded string, and the trailing
- <type>NULL</type> character.
- </para>
-
- <para><function>lwres_addr_parse()</function>
- extracts an address from the buffer <parameter>b</parameter>.
- The buffer's current pointer <constant>b-&gt;current</constant>
- is presumed to point at an encoded address: the address preceded
- by a 32-bit protocol family identifier and a 16-bit length
- field. The encoded address is copied to
- <constant>addr-&gt;address</constant> and
- <constant>addr-&gt;length</constant> indicates the size in bytes
- of the address that was copied.
- <constant>b-&gt;current</constant> is advanced to point at the
- next byte of available data in the buffer following the encoded
- address.
- </para>
-
- <para><function>lwres_getaddrsbyname()</function>
- and <function>lwres_getnamebyaddr()</function> use the
- <type>lwres_gnbaresponse_t</type> structure defined below:
- </para>

-<para><programlisting>

- lwres_uint32_t flags;

- <para>
- The contents of this structure are not manipulated directly but
- they are controlled through the
- <citerefentry>
- <refentrytitle>lwres_gabn</refentrytitle><manvolnum>3</manvolnum>
- </citerefentry>
- functions.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- The lightweight resolver uses
- <function>lwres_getaddrsbyname()</function> to perform
- foward lookups.
- Hostname <parameter>name</parameter> is looked up using the
- resolver
- context <parameter>ctx</parameter> for memory allocation.
- <parameter>addrtypes</parameter> is a bitmask indicating
- which type of
- addresses are to be looked up. Current values for this bitmask are
- <type>LWRES_ADDRTYPE_V4</type> for IPv4 addresses and
- <type>LWRES_ADDRTYPE_V6</type> for IPv6 addresses. Results of the
- lookup are returned in <parameter>*structp</parameter>.
- </para>
-
- <para><function>lwres_getnamebyaddr()</function>
- performs reverse lookups. Resolver context
- <parameter>ctx</parameter> is used for memory allocation. The
- address type is indicated by <parameter>addrtype</parameter>:
- <type>LWRES_ADDRTYPE_V4</type> or
- <type>LWRES_ADDRTYPE_V6</type>. The address to be looked up is
- given by <parameter>addr</parameter> and its length is
- <parameter>addrlen</parameter> bytes. The result of the
- function call is made available through
- <parameter>*structp</parameter>.

- <title>RETURN VALUES</title>
- <para>
- Successful calls to
- <function>lwres_string_parse()</function>
- and
- <function>lwres_addr_parse()</function>
- return
- <errorcode>LWRES_R_SUCCESS.</errorcode>
- Both functions return
- <errorcode>LWRES_R_FAILURE</errorcode>
- if the buffer is corrupt or
- <errorcode>LWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND</errorcode>
- if the buffer has less space than expected for the components of the
- encoded string or address.
- </para>
-
- <para><function>lwres_getaddrsbyname()</function>
- returns <errorcode>LWRES_R_SUCCESS</errorcode> on success and it
- returns <errorcode>LWRES_R_NOTFOUND</errorcode> if the hostname
- <parameter>name</parameter> could not be found.
- </para>
- <para><errorcode>LWRES_R_SUCCESS</errorcode>
- is returned by a successful call to
- <function>lwres_getnamebyaddr()</function>.
- </para>
-
- <para>
- Both
- <function>lwres_getaddrsbyname()</function>
- and
- <function>lwres_getnamebyaddr()</function>
- return
- <errorcode>LWRES_R_NOMEMORY</errorcode>
- when memory allocation requests fail and
- <errorcode>LWRES_R_UNEXPECTEDEND</errorcode>
- if the buffers used for sending queries and receiving replies are too
- small.
