Hostname translation callback (for use with gethostbyname_async()).

Callback will be called after DNS resolution completes or a failure occurs.

Note

Callback should not take more than 10ms to execute, otherwise it might prevent underlying thread processing. A portable user of the callback should not make calls to network operations due to stack size limitations. The callback should not perform expensive operations such as socket recv/send calls or blocking operations.

Parameters

result	NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.
address	On success, destination for the host SocketAddress.

Definition at line 249 of file NetworkInterface.h.

Add a domain name server to list of servers to query.

Parameters

address

Address for the dns host.

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.

Implements DNS.

Add event listener for interface.

This API allows multiple callback to be registered for a single interface. When first called, internal list of event handlers are created and registered to interface through attach() API.

Application may only use attach() or add_event_listener() interface. Mixing usage of both leads to undefined behavior.

Parameters

status_cb

The callback for status changes.

Register callback for status reporting.

Parameters

status_cb

The callback for status changes

Reimplemented from NetworkInterface.

Register callback for status reporting.

The specified status callback function will be called on status changes on the network. The parameters on the callback are the event type and event-type dependent reason parameter. Only one callback can be registered at a time.

To unregister a callback call with status_cb parameter as a zero.

NOTE: Any callbacks registered with this function will be overwritten if add_event_listener() API is used.

Parameters

status_cb

The callback for status changes.

Translate a hostname to an IP address with specific version using network interface name.

The hostname may be either a domain name or an IP address. If the hostname is an IP address, no network transactions will be performed.

If no stack-specific DNS resolution is provided, the hostname will be resolve using a UDP socket on the stack.

Parameters

host	Hostname to resolve.
address	Pointer to a SocketAddress to store the result.
version	IP version of address to resolve, NSAPI_UNSPEC indicates version is chosen by the stack (defaults to NSAPI_UNSPEC).
interface_name	Network interface name

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.

Implements DNS.

Translate a hostname to an IP address (asynchronous) using network interface name.

The hostname may be either a domain name or a dotted IP address. If the hostname is an IP address, no network transactions will be performed.

If no stack-specific DNS resolution is provided, the hostname will be resolve using a UDP socket on the stack.

Call is non-blocking. Result of the DNS operation is returned by the callback. If this function returns failure, callback will not be called. In case result is success (IP address was found from DNS cache), callback will be called before function returns.

Parameters

host	Hostname to resolve.
callback	Callback that is called for result.
version	IP version of address to resolve, NSAPI_UNSPEC indicates version is chosen by the stack (defaults to NSAPI_UNSPEC).
interface_name	Network interface name

Returns

0 on immediate success, negative error code on immediate failure or a positive unique id that represents the hostname translation operation and can be passed to cancel.

Implements DNS.

When translation is cancelled, callback will not be called.

Parameters

id	Unique id of the hostname translation operation (returned by gethostbyname_async)

Returns

NSAPI_ERROR_OK on success, negative error code on failure.

Implements DNS.
