Detailed Description

dname contains function to read and manipulate domain names.

Example domain names are "www.nlnetlabs.nl." and "." (the root)

If a domain name ends with a dot ("."), it is called a Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN). In certain places (for instance when reading a zone file), an origin (which is just another domain name) non-FQDNs will be placed after the current. For instance, if i have a zone file where the origin has been set to "nl.", and my file contains the name "www.nlnetlabs", it will result in "www.nlnetlabs.nl.". Internally, dnames are always absolute (the dot is added when it is missing and there is no origin).

An FQDN is also known as an absolute domain name, therefore the function to check this is called ldns_dname_str_absolute

Domain names are stored in ldns_rdf structures, with the type LDNS_RDF_TYPE_DNAME

This module is NOT about the RR type called DNAME.
