> Hi all,
> I developed DNS methods for resolving IP address by host name and vice verse; receiving mail exchange and authoritative name servers for domain; and receiving other information about domain from DNS server.
> JDK provides above functionality in JNDI DNS service provider [1]. But JNDI technology is too abstract and obfuscates communication with DNS servers, which leads to users don't use JNDI DNS SP.
> Attached classes provide evident API for receiving information from DNS server as wrapper for JNDI DNS SP. Also these classes provide necessary additional parsing of answers.
> Examples how to use created API can be found in DNSClientTest unit test. This library requires only JDK and JUnit to run the test.
