[DNS] Handling of the LOC resource record type

Open bortzmeyer opened this issue 2 years ago • 1 comments

The current DNS code in lib/kernel/src/inet_dns.hrl does not handle the LOC resource record type (RFC 1876). True, it is not used a lot but I have one or two projects that may use it.

Therefore, I would be happy if LOC and its encoding/decoding would be added to lib/kernel/src/inet_dns.hrl .

Note there is Erlang code to deal with LOC types in this library.

I am working on it...

I have implemented a suggestion in PR #6982.

I selected a different data content format than in the dns_erlang library because inet_dns does not expose any records for RR data content.

Comments are welcome, preferably over there...

Fixed in PR #6982. Thank you for reporting this issue.
