67=head1 NAME
68
69Net::hostent - by-name interface to Perl's built-in gethost*() functions
70
71=head1 SYNOPSIS
72
73 use Net::hostnet;
74
75=head1 DESCRIPTION
76
77This module's default exports override the core gethostbyname() and
78gethostbyaddr() functions, replacing them with versions that return
79"Net::hostent" objects. This object has methods that return the similarly
80named structure field name from the C's hostent structure from F<netdb.h>;
81namely name, aliases, addrtype, length, and addr_list. The aliases and
82addr_list methods return array reference, the rest scalars. The addr
83method is equivalent to the zeroth element in the addr_list array
84reference.
85
86You may also import all the structure fields directly into your namespace
87as regular variables using the :FIELDS import tag. (Note that this still
88overrides your core functions.) Access these fields as variables named
89with a preceding C<h_>. Thus, C<$host_obj-E<gt>name()> corresponds to
90$h_name if you import the fields. Array references are available as
91regular array variables, so for example C<@{ $host_obj-E<gt>aliases()
92}> would be simply @h_aliases.
93
94The gethost() function is a simple front-end that forwards a numeric
95argument to gethostbyaddr() by way of Socket::inet_aton, and the rest
96to gethostbyname().
97
98To access this functionality without the core overrides,
99pass the C<use> an empty import list, and then access
100function functions with their full qualified names.
101On the other hand, the built-ins are still available
102via the C<CORE::> pseudo-package.

145
146While this class is currently implemented using the Class::Struct
147module to build a struct-like class, you shouldn't rely upon this.
