|
|
#include <ares.h>

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
The \fBares_version(3)\fP function gets the library version as a string and
|
|
|
|
optionally as an integer stored in the \fIversion\fP argument. If you pass a
|
|
|
|
NULL, no integer is attempted to be returned.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The integer is built up as 24bit number, with 8 separate bits used for major
|
|
|
|
number, minor number and patch number. This makes a version string such as
|
|
|
|
1.2.3 will be returned as the hexadecimal number 0x010203 (decimal 66051).
