NAME

       Net::RIPWhois::in - Perl extension for accessing inetnum objects from RIPE whois database.

SYNOPSIS

       use Net::RIPEWhois::in

       $in = new Net::RIPEWhois::in;

       @in = getIn($whois, $prefix, $ALLOCOPT);

       $whois->closeWhois();

DESCRIPTION

       Get inetnum objects from RIPE whois server. Validate as allocation object.

METHODS

   debug
       Get or set the debug.

       $in->debug(1); set the debug.

       $in->debug(undef);  turn off the $debug;

   error
       ($errNo, $errMsg) = $in->error; $in->(undef, undef, true); reset the error message

       Will get the last error no and error string;

       if $whois->debug is set	@{$in->{'errMsgAll'}}  and   @{$in->{'errNoAll'}} will have the list of all errors  and error numbers.

   new
       $in = new Net::RIPEWhois::in

       Creates a new inetnum object. ENV variables WHOISHOST and WHOISPORT

   getIn
       Return a list of inetnum objects returned by whois.

       $whois = new Net::RIPEWhois;

       @in = $in->getIn($whois, $prefix, $ALLOCOPT);

       Selected attributes of inetnum are stored in data structure i<inetnum>.	Should always query with fast raw output used by the RIPE whois

       $in->{inetnum}{attribute}

       return  undef on error. use $in->error() to get error no. and message.

   splitWhoisAns
