NAME

       putshort - Places short byte quantities into the byte stream

LIBRARY

       Standard C Library (libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <netinet/in.h>
       #include <arpa/nameser.h>
       #include <resolv.h>
       void putshort (
	    unsigned short short_arg,
	    u_char *message_ptr );

PARAMETERS

       Represents a 16-bit integer.  Represents a pointer into the byte stream.

DESCRIPTION

       The putshort() function puts short byte quantities into the byte stream or arbitrary byte boundaries.

       The putshort() function is one of a set of subroutines that form the resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names.  Global infor-
       mation that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure.  The  /include/resolv.h file contains the _res  structure
       definition.

FILES

       Lists the name server and domain name.

NAME

       _getshort - Retrieves short quantities from a byte stream

LIBRARY

       Standard C Library (libc.so, libc.a)

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include <netinet/in.h>
       #include <arpa/nameser.h>
       #include <resolv.h>

       unsigned short _getshort (
	       u_char *message_ptr );

PARAMETERS

       Specifies a pointer into the byte stream.

DESCRIPTION

       The _getshort() function gets 16-bit quantities from the byte stream or arbitrary byte boundaries.

       The  _getshort()  function  is  one  of	a set of subroutines that form the resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names.  Global
       information that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure.  The include/resolv.h file contains  the	_res  data
       structure definition.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, the _getshort() function returns an unsigned short (16-bit) value.

FILES

       Defines name server and domain names.
