NAME

       ares_get_servers - Retrieve name servers from an initialized ares_channel

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ares.h>

       int ares_get_servers(ares_channel channel, struct ares_addr_node **servers)

DESCRIPTION

       The  ares_get_servers(3)  function  retrieves  name  servers configuration from the channel data identified by channel, as a linked list of
       ares_addr_node structs storing a pointer to the first node at the address specified by servers.

       Function caller may traverse the returned name server linked list, or may use it directly as suitable  input  for  the  ares_set_servers(3)
       function, but shall not shrink or extend the list on its own.

       Each node of the name server linked list is stored in memory dynamically allocated and managed by c-ares. It is the caller's responsibility
       to free the resulting linked list, using ares_free_data(3) , once the caller does not need it any longer.

       This function is capable of handling IPv4 and IPv6 name	server	addresses  simultaneously,  rendering  ares_save_options(3)  with  optmask
       ARES_OPT_SERVERS functionally obsolete except for IPv4-only name server usage.

RETURN VALUES

       ares_get_servers(3) may return any of the following values:

       ARES_SUCCESS   The name servers configuration was successfuly retrieved

       ARES_ENOMEM    The memory was exhausted

       ARES_ENODATA   The channel data identified by channel was invalid.

SEE ALSO

       ares_set_servers(3), ares_init_options(3), ares_save_options(3)

AVAILABILITY

       ares_get_servers(3) was added in c-ares 1.7.1
