DESCRIPTION

       The ares_dns_record_rr_cnt(3) function returns the number of resource
       records in the DNS record provided by the dnsrec parameter for the
       section provided in the sect parameter.

       The ares_dns_record_rr_add(3) function adds a new resource record entry
       the the DNS record provided by the dnsrec parameter.  The resulting
       resource record is stored into the variable pointed to by rr_out.  The
       DNS section the resource record belongs to is specified by the sect
       parameter.  The domain name associated with the resource record is
       specified by the name parameter, which can not be NULL but may be an
       empty string, or ".".  The resource record type is specified in the
       type parameter, along with the DNS record class in the rclass
       parameter, and the Time To Live (TTL) in the ttl parameter.


       The ares_dns_record_rr_get(3) and ares_dns_record_rr_get_const(3)
       functions are used to retrieve the resource record pointer from the DNS
       record provided in the dnsrec parameter, for the resource record
       section provided in the sect parameter, for the specified index in the
       idx parameter.  The index must be less than ares_dns_record_rr_cnt(3).
       The former returns a writable pointer to the resource record, while the
       latter returns a read-only pointer to the resource record.


       The ares_dns_record_rr_del(3) is used to delete a resource record from
       the DNS record specified in the dnsrec parameter.  Its primary use is
       to remove a ARES_REC_TYPE_OPT record when needing to retry a query
       without EDNS support.  The DNS RR section is specified via the sect
       parameter, and the index to remove is specified in the idx parameter.
