+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR
+gets a set of resource records associated with a
+\fIhostname\fR,
+\fIclass\fR, and
+\fItype\fR.
+\fIhostname\fR
+is a pointer a to null\-terminated string. The
+\fIflags\fR
+field is currently unused and must be zero.
+.PP
+After a successful call to
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR,
+\fI*res\fR
+is a pointer to an
+\fBrrsetinfo\fR
+structure, containing a list of one or more
+\fBrdatainfo\fR
+structures containing resource records and potentially another list of
+\fBrdatainfo\fR
+structures containing SIG resource records associated with those records. The members
+\fBrri_rdclass\fR
+and
+\fBrri_rdtype\fR
+are copied from the parameters.
+\fBrri_ttl\fR
+and
+\fBrri_name\fR
+are properties of the obtained rrset. The resource records contained in
+\fBrri_rdatas\fR
+and
+\fBrri_sigs\fR
+are in uncompressed DNS wire format. Properties of the rdataset are represented in the
+\fBrri_flags\fR
+bitfield. If the RRSET_VALIDATED bit is set, the data has been DNSSEC validated and the signatures verified.
+.PP
+All of the information returned by
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR
+is dynamically allocated: the
+\fBrrsetinfo\fR
+and
+\fBrdatainfo\fR
+structures, and the canonical host name strings pointed to by the
+\fBrrsetinfo\fRstructure. Memory allocated for the dynamically allocated structures created by a successful call to
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR
+is released by
+\fBlwres_freerrset()\fR.
+\fIrrset\fR
+is a pointer to a
+\fBstruct rrset\fR
+created by a call to
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR.
+.PP
+.SH "RETURN VALUES"
+.PP
+\fBlwres_getrrsetbyname()\fR
+returns zero on success, and one of the following error codes if an error occurred:
+.PP
+\fBERRSET_NONAME\fR
+.RS 4
+the name does not exist
+.RE
+.PP
+\fBERRSET_NODATA\fR
+.RS 4
+the name exists, but does not have data of the desired type
+.RE
+.PP
+\fBERRSET_NOMEMORY\fR
+.RS 4
+memory could not be allocated
+.RE
+.PP
+\fBERRSET_INVAL\fR
+.RS 4
+a parameter is invalid
+.RE
