ARES_PARSE_AAAA_REPLY(3)				     Library Functions Manual					  ARES_PARSE_AAAA_REPLY(3)

NAME

       ares_parse_aaaa_reply - Parse a reply to a DNS query of type AAAA

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ares.h>

       int ares_parse_aaaa_reply(const unsigned char *abuf, int alen,
	    struct hostent **host,
       struct ares_addr6ttl *addrttls, int *naddrttls);

DESCRIPTION

       The  ares_parse_aaaa_reply  function  parses  the  response  to	a  query  of  type  AAAA  into	a struct hostent and/or an array of struct
       ares_addr6ttl.  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, if host is nonnull.  It is the caller's responsibility to free the resulting host structure
       using ares_free_hostent(3) when it is no longer needed.

       If addrttls and naddrttls are both nonnull, then up to *naddrttls struct ares_addr6ttl records are stored in the array pointed to by addrt-
       tls, and then *naddrttls is set to the number of records so stored.  Note that the memory for these records is supplied by the caller.

RETURN VALUES

       ares_parse_aaaa_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.
