-.SH NAME
-ares_parse_a_reply \- Parse a reply to a DNS query of type A
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <ares.h>
-.PP
-.B int ares_parse_a_reply(const unsigned char *\fIabuf\fP, int \fIalen\fP,
-.B struct hostent **\fIhost\fP,
-.B struct ares_addrttl *\fIaddrttls\fP, int *\fInaddrttls\fP);
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The
-.B ares_parse_a_reply
-function parses the response to a query of type A into a
-.BR "struct hostent"
-and/or an array of
-.BR "struct ares_addrttls" .
-The parameters

-give the contents of the response. The result is stored in allocated
-memory and a pointer to it stored into the variable pointed to by
-.IR host ,
-if host is nonnull.
-It is the caller's responsibility to free the resulting host structure
-using
-.BR ares_free_hostent (3)
-when it is no longer needed.
-.PP
-If
-.IR addrttls
-and
-.IR naddrttls
-are both nonnull,
-then up to *naddrttls
-.BR "struct ares_addrttl"
-records are stored in the array pointed to by addrttls,
-and then *naddrttls is set to the number of records so stored.
-Note that the memory for these records is supplied by the caller.
-.SH RETURN VALUES
