.TH ARES_PARSE_CAA_REPLY 3 "16 September 2020"
.SH NAME
ares_parse_caa_reply \- Parse a reply to a DNS query of type CAA
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
#include <ares.h>

int ares_parse_caa_reply(const unsigned char* \fIabuf\fP, int \fIalen\fP,
                         struct ares_caa_reply **\fIcaa_out\fP);
.fi
.SH DESCRIPTION
The
.BR "ares_parse_caa_reply" 
function parses the response to a query of type CAA into a
linked list (one element per sub-string) of
.IR "struct ares_caa_reply"
The parameters
.I abuf
and
.I alen
give the contents of the response.  The result is stored in allocated
memory and a pointer to it stored into the variable pointed to by
.IR caa_out .
It is the caller's responsibility to free the resulting
.IR caa_out
structure when it is no longer needed using the function
.B ares_free_data(3)
.PP
The structure 
.I ares_caa_reply(3)
contains the following fields:
.sp
.in +4n
.nf
struct ares_caa_reply {
  struct ares_caa_reply *next;
  int                    critical;
  unsigned char         *property;
  size_t                 plength; /* plength excludes null */
  unsigned char         *value;
  size_t                 length;  /* length excludes null */
};
.fi
.in
.PP
.SH RETURN VALUES
.BR "ares_parse_caa_reply"
can return any of the following values:
.TP 15
.B ARES_SUCCESS
The response was successfully parsed.
.TP 15
.B ARES_EBADRESP
The response was malformatted.
.TP 15
.B ARES_ENODATA
The response did not contain an answer to the query.
.TP 15
.B ARES_ENOMEM
Memory was exhausted.
