.SH NAME
Net::LDNS::RR \- common baseclass for all classes representing resource records.
.SH SYNOPSIS

.SH OVERLOADS
.IX Header "OVERLOADS"
This class overloads stringify and comparisons ('""', '<=>' and 'cmp').
.SH "CLASS METHOD"
.IX Header "CLASS METHOD"
.IP new($string) 4
.IX Item "new($string)"
Creates a new RR object of a suitable subclass, given a string representing an RR in common presentation format.
.SH "INSTANCE METHODS"
.IX Header "INSTANCE METHODS"
.IP \fBowner()\fR 4
.IX Item "owner()"
.PD 0
.IP \fBname()\fR 4
.IX Item "name()"
.PD
These two both return the owner name of the RR.
.IP \fBttl()\fR 4
.IX Item "ttl()"
Returns the ttl of the RR.
.IP \fBtype()\fR 4
.IX Item "type()"
Return the type of the RR.
.IP \fBclass()\fR 4
.IX Item "class()"
Returns the class of the RR.
.IP \fBstring()\fR 4
.IX Item "string()"
Returns a string with the RR in presentation format.
.IP do_compare($other) 4
.IX Item "do_compare($other)"
Calls the XS \f(CW\*(C`compare\*(C'\fR method with the arguments it needs, rather than the ones overloading gives.
.IP to_string 4
.IX Item "to_string"
Calls the XS \f(CW\*(C`string\*(C'\fR method with the arguments it needs, rather than the ones overloading gives. Functionally identical to \fBstring()\fR from the
Perl level, except for being a tiny little bit slower.
.IP \fBrd_count()\fR 4
.IX Item "rd_count()"
The number of RDATA objects in this RR.
.IP rdf($postion) 4
.IX Item "rdf($postion)"
The raw data of the RDATA object in the given position. The first item is in
position 0. If an attempt is made to fetch RDATA from a position that doesn't
have any, an exception will be thrown.
