Description-en: modern asynchronous DNS API (shared library)
getdns is a modern asynchronous DNS API. It implements DNS entry
points from a design developed and vetted by application developers,
in an API specification edited by Paul Hoffman. With the development
of this API, we intend to offer application developers a modernized
and flexible way to access DNS security (DNSSEC) and other powerful
new DNS features; a particular hope is to inspire application
developers towards innovative security solutions in their
applications.
.
This is the runtime package of the library.
