ldns_rr* ldns_axfr_next(ldns_resolver *resolver);

void ldns_axfr_abort(ldns_resolver *resolver);

bool ldns_axfr_complete(const ldns_resolver *resolver);

ldns_pkt* ldns_axfr_last_pkt(const ldns_resolver *res);

ldns_axfr_next(): Get the next stream of RRs in a AXFR .br resolver: the resolver to use. First ldns_axfr_start() must be called .br Returns ldns_rr the next RR from the AXFR stream After you get this returned RR (not NULL: on error), then check if ldns_axfr_complete() is true to see if the zone transfer has completed.

ldns_axfr_abort(): Abort a transfer that is in progress .br resolver: the resolver that is used

ldns_axfr_complete(): Returns true if the axfr transfer has completed (i.e. 2 SOA RRs and no errors were encountered .br resolver: the resolver that is used .br Returns bool true if axfr transfer was completed without error

ldns_axfr_last_pkt(): Returns a pointer to the last ldns_pkt that was sent by the server in the AXFR transfer usable for instance to get the error code on failure .br res: the resolver that was used in the axfr transfer .br Returns ldns_pkt the last packet sent
