.SH DESCRIPTION
The \fIares_dns_record_rr_cnt(3)\fP function returns the number of resource
records in the DNS record provided by the
.IR dnsrec
parameter for the section provided in the
.IR sect
parameter.
The \fIares_dns_record_rr_add(3)\fP function adds a new resource record entry
the the DNS record provided by the
.IR dnsrec
parameter. The resulting resource record is stored into the variable pointed to by
.IR rr_out.
The DNS section the resource record belongs to is specified by the
.IR sect
parameter. The domain name associated with the resource record is specified by the
.IR name
parameter, which can not be NULL but may be an empty string, or ".". The resource
record type is specified in the
.IR type
parameter, along with the DNS record class in the
.IR rclass
parameter, and the Time To Live (TTL) in the
.IR ttl
parameter.
The \fIares_dns_record_rr_get(3)\fP and \fIares_dns_record_rr_get_const(3)\fP
functions are used to retrieve the resource record pointer from the DNS record
provided in the
.IR dnsrec
parameter, for the resource record section provided in the
.IR sect
parameter, for the specified index in the
.IR idx
parameter. The index must be less than \fIares_dns_record_rr_cnt(3)\fP. The
former returns a writable pointer to the resource record, while the latter
returns a read-only pointer to the resource record.
The \fIares_dns_record_rr_del(3)\fP is used to delete a resource record from
the DNS record specified in the

needing to retry a query without EDNS support. The DNS RR section is specified
via the
.IR sect
parameter, and the index to remove is specified in the
.IR idx
parameter. The index must be less than \fIares_dns_record_rr_cnt(3)\fP.
