DNS Protocol Library for C++ 11

badge

Introduction

A simple C++ library for encoding and decoding of DNS protocol packets.

This library is a full-rewritten of mnezerka/dnslib: adopt C++ 11 features, fix bugs, etc. Since almost every line is changed, so I decided to create a new repository, instead of forking the original one.

Current implementation covers:

  • RFC 1035 - DOMAIN NAMES - IMPLEMENTATION AND SPECIFICATION
  • RFC 2915 - The Naming Authority Pointer (NAPTR) DNS Resource Record
  • RFC 3596 - DNS Extensions to Support IP Version 6

Other tests:

  • checked with valgrind tool (valgrind --leak-check=full ./unittests)
  • linted with cppcheck (cppcheck --enable=all *cpp)
  • fake server tested against Codenomicon DNS suite

Getting started

mkdir build && cd build
cmake ..
make
./unittests

TODO

  • Make the library CMake-friendly (eg: support FetchContent)
