Detailed Description

implements SRV DNS resolving

This file implements resolving of services in the DNS using the protocol defined in RFC 2782.

Typedef Documentation

typedef struct __srv_list _srv_list

typedef struct __srv_list * srv_list

representation of a SRV DNS record

This structure is used to build an ordered double linked list of SRV DNS records for a service on a domain

Function Documentation

char* srv_inet_ntoa	(	pool	p,
		unsigned char *	addrptr
	)

convert an IPv4 (AF_INET) address to its textual representation using memory pools

Parameters:

p	the pool to be used
addrptr	the address that should be printed

Returns:

the address as a string

char* srv_lookup	(	pool	p,
		const char *	service,
		const char *	domain
	)

do a DNS lookup

This function implements a SRV DNS lookup and falls back to normal AAAA/A resolution if no service has been given by the caller.

Parameters:

p	memory pool to be used by this function
service	which service should be looked up (e.g. "_xmpp-server._tcp")
domain	which domain should be looked up

Returns:

comma separated list of results containing IPv4 and IPv6 addresses with or without ports

Todo:

The function honors the priority values of a SRV record but not the weight values. Implement handling of weights!

char* srv_port2str	(	pool	p,
		unsigned short	port
	)

convert a (numerical) port number to a string using memory pools

Parameters:

p	the pool to be used
port	the port that should be converted

Returns:

the port number as a string

void srv_xhash_join	(	pool	p,
		xht	ht,
		const char *	key,
		char *	value
	)

put a value in an xhash and join it with the previous value if there has been already one in the hash

If there is no entry for this key, the function just enters the value. If there is already an entry for this key, the function will append a "," and the old value to the new value and insert it into the hash.

Parameters:

p	memory pool to be used
ht	the hash table
key	the key in the hash
value	the value that should be inserted
