putlong − Places long byte quantities into the byte stream

SYNOPSIS

#include <sys/types.h>
#include <netinet/in.h>
#include <arpa/nameser.h>
#include <resolv.h>
void putlong(
        unsigned int long_arg,
        u_char ∗message_ptr );

LIBRARY

Standard C Library (libc)

PARAMETERS

long_arg
Represents a 32-bit integer.

message_ptr
Represents a pointer into the byte stream.

DESCRIPTION

The putlong() function places long byte quantities into the byte stream or arbitrary byte boundaries. 

The putlong() function is one of a set of subroutines that form the resolver, a set of functions that resolve domain names. Global information that is used by the resolver functions is kept in the _res data structure. The /include/resolv.h file contains the _res data structure definition. 

FILES

/etc/resolv.conf
Lists the name server and domain name.
