The host may not be able to resolve IPv6, but we don't really have to - take that into account. Hosts that aren't IPv6-enabled have CURLRES_IPV4 - defined. - - CURLRES_ARES - is defined if libcurl is built to use c-ares for asynchronous - name resolves. It cannot have ENABLE_IPV6 defined at the same time, as c-ares - has no ipv6 support. This can be Windows or *nix. - - CURLRES_THREADED - is defined if libcurl is built to run under (native) - Windows, and then the name resolve will be done in a new thread, and the - supported asynch API will be the same as for ares-builds. - - If any of the two previous are defined, CURLRES_ASYNCH is defined too. If - libcurl is not built to use an asynchronous resolver, CURLRES_SYNCH is - defined. - - The host*.c sources files are split up like this: - - hostip.c - method-independent resolver functions and utility functions - hostasyn.c - functions for asynchronous name resolves - hostsyn.c - functions for synchronous name resolves - hostares.c - functions for ares-using name resolves - hostthre.c - functions for threaded name resolves - hostip4.c - ipv4-specific functions - hostip6.c - ipv6-specific functions - - The hostip.h is the single united header file for all this. It defines the - CURLRES_* defines based on the config*.h and curl_setup.h defines. |
