Usage

Data Structures

struct cache_entry
struct wget_dns_cache_st

Functions

int wget_dns_cache_init (wget_dns_cache **cache)
void wget_dns_cache_free (wget_dns_cache **cache)
struct addrinfo * wget_dns_cache_get (wget_dns_cache *cache, const char *host, uint16_t port)

Detailed Description

DNS cache management functions.

Function Documentation

int wget_dns_cache_init (wget_dns_cache ** cache)

Parameters

cache Pointer to return newly allocated and initialized wget_dns_cache instance

Returns

WGET_E_SUCCESS if OK, WGET_E_MEMORY if out-of-memory or WGET_E_INVALID if the mutex initialization failed.

Allocates and initializes a wget_dns_cache instance.

void wget_dns_cache_free (wget_dns_cache ** cache)

Parameters

[in/out] cache Pointer to wget_dns_cache instance that will be freed and NULLified.

Free the resources allocated by wget_dns_cache_init().

struct addrinfo * wget_dns_cache_get (wget_dns_cache * cache, const char * host, uint16_t port)

Parameters

cache A wget_dns_cache instance, created by wget_dns_cache_init().
host Hostname to look up
port Port to look up

Returns

The cached addrinfo structure or NULL if not found

int wget_dns_cache_add (wget_dns_cache * cache, const char * host, uint16_t port, struct addrinfo ** addrinfo)

Parameters

cache A wget_dns_cache instance, created by wget_dns_cache_init().
host Hostname part of the key
port Port part of the key
[in/out] addrinfo Addrinfo structure to cache, returns cached addrinfo

Returns

WGET_E_SUCCESS on success, else a WGET_E_* error value

This functions adds addrinfo to the given DNS cache cache.

If an entry for [host,port] already exists, addrinfo is free'd and replaced by the cached entry. Do not free addrinfo yourself - this will be done when the whole cache is freed.
