  adns is a resolver library for C (and C++) programs. In contrast with
  the existing interfaces, gethostbyname et al and libresolv, it has the
  following features:

  * It is reasonably easy to use for simple programs which just want
    to translate names to addresses, look up MX records, etc.
  * It can be used in an asynchronous, non-blocking, manner. Many
    queries can be handled simultaneously.

  Technical note: adns requires a real nameserver like BIND or
  Dents running on the same system or a nearby one, which must be
  willing to provide `recursive service'. I.e., adns is a `stub
  resolver'.
