SoupDNSEntry* soup_dns_entry_from_name (const char *name); SoupDNSEntry* soup_dns_entry_from_addr (gconstpointer addr, int family); gboolean soup_dns_entry_check_lookup (SoupDNSEntry *entry); void soup_dns_entry_cancel_lookup (SoupDNSEntry *entry);
SoupDNSEntry* soup_dns_entry_from_name (const char *name);
Begins asynchronous resolution of name
. The caller should
periodically call soup_dns_entry_check_lookup()
to see if it is
done, and call soup_dns_entry_get_hostent()
when
soup_dns_entry_check_lookup()
returns TRUE
.
Currently, this routine forks and does the lookup, which can cause some problems. In general, this will work ok for most programs most of the time. It will be slow or even fail when using operating systems that copy the entire process when forking.
name : |
a nice name (eg, mofo.eecs.umich.edu) or a dotted decimal name (eg, 141.213.8.59). |
Returns : | a SoupDNSEntry, which will be freed when you call
soup_dns_entry_get_hostent() or soup_dns_entry_cancel_lookup() .

SoupDNSEntry* soup_dns_entry_from_addr (gconstpointer addr, int family);
Begins asynchronous resolution of addr
. The caller should
periodically call soup_dns_entry_check_lookup()
to see if it is
done, and call soup_dns_entry_get_hostent()
when
soup_dns_entry_check_lookup()
returns TRUE
.

addr : |
pointer to address data (eg, an in_addr_t) |
family : |
address family of addr
|
Returns : | a SoupDNSEntry, which will be freed when you call
soup_dns_entry_get_hostent() or soup_dns_entry_cancel_lookup() .
|
gboolean soup_dns_entry_check_lookup (SoupDNSEntry *entry);
Checks if entry
has finished resolving
entry : |
a SoupDNSEntry |
Returns : | TRUE if entry has finished resolving (either
successfully or not)
