Validate as allocation object.METHODSdebug 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 db. $in->{inetnum}{attribute} return undef on error. use $in->error() to get error no. and message. splitWhoisAns Split the response string from whois ans and return list of inetnum on sucess. @inList = $in->splitWhoisAns( $whoisAnsRef); Returns undef on error. Spliting depending on fast raw output format from whois db. Use "-F" to get fast raw output. validAlloc Check the inetnum is an alloation or not.
