DESCRIPTION

       ldns_rr_new() creates a new rr structure.
              Returns ldns_rr *

       ldns_rr_new_frm_type() creates a new rr structure, based on the given type.  alloc  enough
              space to hold all the rdf's

       ldns_rr_new_frm_str() creates an rr from a string.  The string should be a fully filled-in
              rr,  like  ownername  <space>  TTL  <space>  CLASS  <space>  TYPE
              <space> RDATA.
              n: the rr to return
              str: the string to convert
              default_ttl: default ttl value for the rr.  If 0 DEF_TTL will be used
              origin:  when  the  owner is relative add this.  The caller must ldns_rdf_deep_free
              it.
              prev: the previous ownername. if this value is not NULL,  the  function  overwrites
              this   with   the   ownername   found   in   this  string.  The  caller  must  then
              ldns_rdf_deep_free it.
              Returns a status msg describing an error or LDNS_STATUS_OK

       ldns_rr_new_frm_fp() creates a new rr from a file containing a string.
              rr: the new rr
              fp: the file pointer to use
              default_ttl: pointer to a default ttl for the rr. If NULL DEF_TTL will be used  the
              pointer will be updated if the file contains a $TTL directive
              origin: when the owner is relative add this the pointer will be updated if the file
              contains a $ORIGIN directive The caller must ldns_rdf_deep_free it.
              prev: when the owner is whitespaces use this as the * ownername the pointer will be
              updated after the call The caller must ldns_rdf_deep_free it.
              Returns a ldns_status with an error or LDNS_STATUS_OK

       ldns_rr_free() frees an RR structure
              *rr: the RR to be freed
              Returns void

       ldns_rr_print()  Prints  the  data  in  the  resource  record to the given file stream (in
              presentation format)

              output: the file stream to print to
              rr: the resource record to print
              Returns void
