=head1 NAME

Net::hostent - by-name interface to Perl's built-in gethost*() functions

=head1 SYNOPSIS

use Net::hostent;

=head1 DESCRIPTION

This module's default exports override the core gethostbyname() and
gethostbyaddr() functions, replacing them with versions that return
"Net::hostent" objects.  This object has methods that return the similarly
named structure field name from the C's hostent structure from F<netdb.h>;
namely name, aliases, addrtype, length, and addr_list.  The aliases and
addr_list methods return array reference, the rest scalars.  The addr
method is equivalent to the zeroth element in the addr_list array
reference.

You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace
as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag.  (Note that this still
overrides your core functions.)  Access these fields as variables named
with a preceding C<h_>.  Thus, C<$host_obj-E<gt>name()> corresponds to
$h_name if you import the fields.  Array references are available as
regular array variables, so for example C<@{ $host_obj-E<gt>aliases()
}> would be simply @h_aliases.

The gethost() function is a simple front-end that forwards a numeric
argument to gethostbyaddr() by way of Socket::inet_aton, and the rest
to gethostbyname().

To access this functionality without the core overrides,
pass the C<use> an empty import list, and then access
function functions with their full qualified names.
On the other hand, the built-ins are still available
via the C<CORE::> pseudo-package.

=head1 EXAMPLES

use Net::hostent;
 use Socket;

@ARGV = ('netscape.com') unless @ARGV;

for $host ( @ARGV ) {

unless ($h = gethost($host)) {
	warn "$0: no such host: $host\n";
	next;
    }

printf "\n%s is %s%s\n", 
	    $host, 
	    lc($h->name) eq lc($host) ? "" : "*really* ",
	    $h->name;

print "\taliases are ", join(", ", @{$h->aliases}), "\n"
		if @{$h->aliases};

if ( @{$h->addr_list} > 1 ) { 
	my $i;
	for $addr ( @{$h->addr_list} ) {
	    printf "\taddr #%d is [%s]\n", $i++, inet_ntoa($addr);
	} 
    } else {
	printf "\taddress is [%s]\n", inet_ntoa($h->addr);
    }

if ($h = gethostbyaddr($h->addr)) {
	if (lc($h->name) ne lc($host)) {
	    printf "\tThat addr reverses to host %s!\n", $h->name;
	    $host = $h->name;
	    redo;
	} 
    }
 }

=head1 NOTE

While this class is currently implemented using the Class::Struct
module to build a struct-like class, you shouldn't rely upon this.
