Net::DNS 1.38 Released

Dear all,

I am pleased to announce Net::DNS 1.38.

This release has

  • a fix for incorrectly extracting the extended rcode from EDNS (a bug since 1.36)
  • masking out the highest bit of a CLASS value with Net::DNS::Parameters::classbyval in support of MDNS
  • improved robustness of address parsing in Mailbox.pm
  • improved testing using the new t/TestToolkit.pm module
  • refactored socket code and control structure in Nameserver.pm
  • and many more code-improvements and bug and documentation fixes.

This release deprecates

  • the packet->edns->size() method (replaced by packet->edns->UDPsize()).
  • the rdatastr() method for Resource Record modules replaced with rdstring())
