  class Net_API DNS
  
This class provides an interface to the domain name service. An internal DNS cache is used to speed up name lookups. { public: static const HostEntry& hostByName(const std::string& hostname); Returns a HostEntry object containing the DNS information for the host with the given name. Throws a HostNotFoundException if a host with the given name cannot be found. Throws a NoAddressFoundException if no address can be found for the hostname. Throws a DNSException in case of a general DNS error. Throws an IOException in case of any other error. static const HostEntry& hostByAddress(const IPAddress& address); Returns a HostEntry object containing the DNS information for the host with the given IP address. Throws a HostNotFoundException if a host with the given name cannot be found. Throws a DNSException in case of a general DNS error. Throws an IOException in case of any other error.

          static const HostEntry& resolve(const std::string& address);
  
Returns a HostEntry object containing the DNS information for the host with the given IP address or host name. Throws a HostNotFoundException if a host with the given name cannot be found. Throws a NoAddressFoundException if no address can be found for the hostname. Throws a DNSException in case of a general DNS error. Throws an IOException in case of any other error. static IPAddress resolveOne(const std::string& address); Convenience method that calls resolve(address) and returns the first address from the HostInfo.

          static const HostEntry& thisHost();
  
Returns a HostEntry object containing the DNS information for this host. Throws a HostNotFoundException if DNS information for this host cannot be found. Throws a NoAddressFoundException if no address can be found for this host. Throws a DNSException in case of a general DNS error. Throws an IOException in case of any other error.

          static void flushCache();
  
Flushes the internal DNS cache.

  protected:
          static int lastError();
  
Returns the code of the last error. static void error(int code, const std::string& arg); Throws an exception according to the error code. private: typedef std::map<std::string, HostEntry> DNSCache; static DNSCache _cache; static Poco::FastMutex _mutex; };
