NAME
       ldns_rr_descriptor, ldns_rr_descript, ldns_rr_descriptor_minimum,
       ldns_rr_descriptor_maximum, ldns_rr_descriptor_field_type


SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdint.h>
       #include <stdbool.h>

       #include <ldns/ldns.h>

        ldns_rr_descriptor();

       const ldns_rr_descriptor* ldns_rr_descript(uint16_t type);

       size_t ldns_rr_descriptor_minimum(const ldns_rr_descriptor
       *descriptor);

       size_t ldns_rr_descriptor_maximum(const ldns_rr_descriptor
       *descriptor);

       ldns_rdf_type ldns_rr_descriptor_field_type(const ldns_rr_descriptor
       *descriptor, size_t field);

DESCRIPTION
       ldns_rr_descriptor()

       ldns_rr_descript() returns the resource record descriptor for the given
              rr type.

              type: the type value of the rr type
              Returns the ldns_rr_descriptor for this type

       ldns_rr_descriptor_minimum() returns the minimum number of rdata fields
              of the rr type this descriptor describes.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              Returns the minimum number of rdata fields

       ldns_rr_descriptor_maximum() returns the maximum number of rdata fields
              of the rr type this descriptor describes.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              Returns the maximum number of rdata fields

       ldns_rr_descriptor_field_type() returns the rdf type for the given
              rdata field number of the rr type for the given descriptor.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              field: the field number
              Returns the rdf type for the field
