public class DNSRecord

extends java.lang.Object

A record that is returned by the DNS server.

When a Query method is performed by the DNS bean, the DNS server returns one or more DNSRecords containing information about the domain you specified. This information is contained in the different fields of the record.

Each record may have multiple FieldNames and corresponding FieldValues . You may iterate through these by setting the FieldIndex field.

The following is a list of all of the fields and their descriptions for this type:

Domain: The domain name associated with the selected response record, at RecordIndex .

FieldCount: Number of fields in the current record.

After a successful query, the Records collection provides the field values for each record.

To retrieve a particular field value for a record, first set FieldIndex to a valid response field index, and then query records collection for the value of that field.

FieldIndex: The index of the selected field of the current record. FieldIndex valid values are from 0 to ( FieldCount - 1).

After a successful query, the Records collection provides the field values for each record.

To retrieve a particular field value for a record, first set FieldIndex to a valid response field index, and then query records collection for the value of that field.

FieldName: The name of the field selected by FieldIndex . Field names are different depending on the record type. For example, an MX record type will contain two fields: PREFERENCE and EXCHANGE, but an SOA record type contains seven fields.

FieldValue: The value of the field selected by FieldIndex .

After a successful query, the Records collection provides the field values for each record.

To retrieve a particular field value for a record, first set FieldIndex to a valid response field index, and then query records collection for the value of that field.

RecordData: The full record data as received from the DNS server.

After a successful query, the Records collection provides the field values for each record.

To retrieve a particular field value for a record, first set FieldIndex to a valid response field index, and then query records collection for the value of that field.
