Constructors and Destructor
We use the default versions of destructor, copy constructor, and assignment operator. The default constructor is hidden as a result of defining the other constructors. This is intentional; we don't want to allow an Rcode object to be constructed with an invalid state.

Detailed Description

DNS Response Codes (RCODEs) class.

The Rcode class objects represent standard Response Codes (RCODEs) of the header section of DNS messages, and extended response codes as defined in the EDNS specification.

Originally RCODEs were defined as 4-bit integers (RFC1035), and then extended to 12 bits as part of the EDNS specification (RFC2671). This API uses the 12-bit version of the definition from the beginning; applications don't have to aware of the original definition except when dealing with the wire-format representation of the EDNS OPT RR (which is rare).

Like the Opcode class, Rcodes could be represented as bare integers, but we define a separate class to benefit from C++ type safety.

For convenience we also provide an enum type for pre-defined RCODE values, but it is generally advisable to handle RCODEs through this class. In fact, public interfaces of this library uses this class to pass or return RCODEs instead of the bare code values.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Rcode() [1/2]

isc::dns::Rcode::Rcode ( const uint16_t code )

explicit

Constructor from the code value.

Since RCODEs are 12-bit values, parameters larger than 0xfff are invalid. If code is larger than 0xfff an exception of class isc::OutOfRange will be thrown.

Parameters

code	The underlying 12-bit code value of the Rcode.

Definition at line 58 of file rcode.cc.

References isc_throw.

Rcode() [2/2]

isc::dns::Rcode::Rcode	(	const uint8_t	code,
		const uint8_t	extended_code )

Constructor from a pair of base and extended parts of code.

This constructor takes two parameters, one for the lower 4 bits of the code value, the other for the upper 8 bits, and combines them to build a complete 12-bit code value.

The first parameter, code, is the lower 4 bits, and therefore must not exceed 15. Otherwise, an exception of class isc::OutOfRange will be thrown.

This version of constructor is provided specifically for constructing an Rcode from a DNS header and an EDNS OPT RR. Normal applications won't have to use this constructor.

Parameters

code	The lower 4 bits of the underlying code value.
extended_code	The upper 8 bits of the underlying code value.
