Members
pNext
A pointer to the next DNS_RECORD structure.
pName
A pointer to a string that represents the domain name of the record set. This must be in the string format that corresponds to the function called, such as ANSI, Unicode, or UTF8.
wType
A value that represents the RR DNS Record Type. wType determines the format of Data. For example, if the value of wType is DNS_TYPE_A, the data type of Data is DNS_A_DATA.
wDataLength
The length, in bytes, of Data. For fixed-length data types, this value is the size of the corresponding data type, such as sizeof(DNS_A_DATA). For the non-fixed data types, use one of the following macros to determine the length of the data:
| C++ |
|---|
#include <windows.h> |
Flags
Flags.DW
A value that contains a bitmap of DNS Record Flags.
Flags.S
A set of flags in the form of a DNS_RECORD_FLAGS structure.
dwTtl
The DNS RR's Time To Live value (TTL), in seconds.
dwReserved
Reserved. Do not use.

Remarks
When building a DNS_RECORD list as an input argument for the various DNS update routines found in the DNS API, all flags in the DNS_RECORD structure should be set to zero.
Note
The windns.h header defines DNS_RECORD as an alias that automatically selects the ANSI or Unicode version of this function based on the definition of the UNICODE preprocessor constant. Mixing usage of the encoding-neutral alias with code that is not encoding-neutral can lead to mismatches that result in compilation or runtime errors. For more information, see Conventions for Function Prototypes.
