Implements interfaces: twisted.internet.interfaces.IResolver
| Instance Variables | _waiting | A dictmapping tuple keys of query name/type/class to 
Deferreds which will be called back with the result of those queries. This 
is used to avoid issuing the same query more than once in parallel.  This 
is more efficient on the network and helps avoid a "birthday 
paradox" attack by keeping the number of outstanding requests for a 
particular query fixed at one instead of allowing the attacker to raise it 
to an arbitrary number. | 
| _reactor | A provider of IReactorTCP,IReactorUDP,
andIReactorTimewhich will be used to set up network resources and track timeouts. |

| Method | _getProtocol | Undocumented | 
| Method | _connectedProtocol | Return a new DNSDatagramProtocolbound to a randomly selected port number. |

issue a query to it using*args, and arrange for it to be 
disconnected from its transport after the query completes. |

resolv.conf(5)-format file given by resolv as 
well as those in the given servers list.  Servers are queried 
in a round-robin fashion.  If given, resolv is periodically 
checked for modification and re-parsed if it is noticed to have 
changed.
| Parameters | servers | If not None, interpreted as a list of (host, port) pairs specifying 
addresses of domain name servers to attempt to use for this lookup.  Host 
addresses should be in IPv4 dotted-quad form.  If specified, overrides resolv.
 (type:listof(str, int)orNone) | 
| resolv | Filename to read and parse as a resolver(5) configuration file.
 (type: str) | |
| timeout | Default number of seconds after which to reissue the query.  When the 
last timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
 (type: Sequence of int) | |
| reactor | A provider of IReactorTime,IReactorUDP,
andIReactorTCPwhich will be used to establish connections, listen for DNS datagrams, and 
enforce timeouts.  If not provided, the global reactor will be used. | |
| Raises | ValueError | Raised if no nameserver addresses can be found. | 
Return the address of a nameserver.
TODO: Weight servers for response time so faster ones can be preferred.DNSDatagramProtocol
bound to a randomly selected port number.
DNSDatagramProtocol
instance from _connectedProtocol,
issue a query to it using *args, and arrange for it to be 
disconnected from its transport after the query completes.
| Parameters | *args | Positional arguments to be passed to DNSDatagramProtocol.query. | 
| Returns | A Deferredwhich
will be called back with the result of the query. | |
| Parameters | queries | The queries to make.
 (type: A listofdns.Queryinstances
) | 
| timeout | Number of seconds after which to reissue the query. When the last 
timeout expires, the query is considered failed.
 (type: Sequence of int) | |
| Returns | (type: Deferred@raisetwisted.internet.defer.TimeoutError: When the query times 
out.
) | |
| Parameters | queries | The queries to make.
 (type: Any non-zero number of dns.Queryinstances
) | 
| timeout | The number of seconds after which to fail.
 (type: int) | |
| Returns | (type: Deferred) | |
Extract results from the given message.
If the message was truncated, re-attempt the query over TCP and return a Deferred which will fire with the results of that query.
If the message's result code is not dns.OK, return a 
Failure indicating the type of error which occurred.
Build a dns.Query for the 
given parameters and dispatch it via UDP.
| Parameters | name | (type: str) | 
| type | (type: int) | |
| cls | (type: int) | |
| Returns | A Deferredwhich
fires with a three-tuple giving the answer, authority, and additional 
sections of the response or with aFailureif the 
response code is anything other thandns.OK. | |
