It's not supposed to know how to construct the /// complete RCODE, much less maintain the RCODE in it. /// It is the caller's responsibility (typically the \c Message class). /// /// When converting wire-format OPT RR into an \c EDNS object, it normalizes /// the information, i.e., unknown flags will be ignored on construction. /// /// This class is also supposed to support %EDNS options such as NSID, /// but the initial implementation does not include it.

An OPT RR is no different from other RRs /// in terms of the wire format syntax, and in that sense we could use the /// generic \c RRset class to represent an OPT RR (BIND 9 adopts this /// approach). But the resulting interface would be inconvenient for /// developers. For example, the developer would need to know that the /// UDP size is encoded in the RR Class field. It's better to provide /// a more abstract interface along with the special semantics of OPT RR. /// /// Another approach would be to realize each optional feature of EDNS /// as an attribute of the DNS message. /// NLnet Labs' ldns takes this approach. /// This way an operation for specifying the UDP size would be written /// like this: /// \code message->setUDPSize(4096); \endcode /// which should be more intuitive. /// A drawback of this approach is that OPT RR is itself optional and the /// separate parameters may not necessarily indicate whether to include an /// OPT RR per se. /// For example, consider what should be done with this code: /// \code message->setUDPSize(512); \endcode /// Since the payload size of 512 is the default, it may mean the OPT RR /// should be skipped. But it might also mean the caller intentionally /// (for some reason) wants to insert an OPT RR specifying the default UDP /// size explicitly. /// /// So, we use a separate class that encapsulates the EDNS semantics and /// knows the mapping between the semantics and the wire format representation. /// This way the interface can be semantics-based and is intuitive: /// \code edns->setUDPSize(4096); \endcode /// while we can explicitly specify whether to include an OPT RR by setting /// (or not setting) an \c EDNS object in a message: /// \code message->setEDNS(edns); // unless we do this OPT RR is skipped /// \endcode /// /// There is still a non trivial point: How to manage extended RCODEs. /// An OPT RR encodes the upper 8 bits of extended 12-bit RCODE. /// In general, it would be better to provide a unified interface to get /// access to RCODEs whether or not they are traditional 4 bit codes or /// extended ones that have non 0 upper bits. /// However, since an OPT RR may not appear in a message the RCODE cannot be /// maintained in the \c EDNS class. /// But it would not be desirable to maintain the extended RCODEs completely /// in the \c Message class, either, because we wanted to hide the mapping /// between %EDNS semantics and its wire format representation within the /// \c EDNS class; if we moved the responsibility about RCODEs to the /// \c Message class, it would have to parse and render the upper 8 bits of /// the RCODEs, dealing with wire representation of OPT RR. /// This is suboptimal in the sense of encapsulation. /// /// As a compromise, our decision is to separate the knowledge about the /// relationship with RCODE from the knowledge about the wire format as /// noted in the beginning of this description. /// /// This decoupling is based on the observation that the extended RCODE /// is a very special case where %EDNS only has partial information. /// If a future version of the %EDNS protocol introduces further relationship /// between the message and the %EDNS, we might reconsider the interface, /// probably with higher abstraction. class EDNS { public: /// /// \name Constructors and Destructor /// /// We use the default copy constructor, default copy assignment operator, /// and default destructors intentionally. /// /// Note about copyability: This version of this class is copyable, /// but we may want to change it once we support EDNS options, when /// we want to revise this class using the pimpl idiom. /// But we should be careful about that: the python binding currently /// assumes this class is copyable. //@{ /// Constructor with the EDNS version. /// An application would use this constructor to specify EDNS parameters /// and/or options for outgoing DNS messages. /// /// All other parameters than the version number will be initialized to /// reasonable defaults. /// Specifically, the UDP payload size is set to /// \c Message::DEFAULT_MAX_UDPSIZE, and DNSSEC is assumed to be not /// supported. /// These parameters can be altered via setter methods of this class. /// Note, however, that the version number cannot be changed once /// constructed. /// /// The version number parameter can be omitted, in which case the highest /// supported version in this implementation will be assumed. /// When specified, if it is larger than the highest supported version, /// an exception of class \c isc::InvalidParameter will be thrown. /// /// This constructor throws no other exception. /// /// \param version The version number of the EDNS to be constructed. explicit EDNS(const uint8_t version = SUPPORTED_VERSION); /// \brief Constructor from resource record (RR) parameters. /// /// This constructor is intended to be used to construct an EDNS object /// from an OPT RR contained in an incoming DNS message. /// /// Unlike many other constructors for this purpose, this constructor /// does not take the bare wire-format %data in the form of an /// \c InputBuffer object.

At that point the parser would have already converted the /// wire %data into corresponding objects of \c Name, \c RRClass, /// \c RRType, etc, and it makes more sense to pass them directly to the /// constructor. /// /// In practice, top level applications rarely need to use this /// constructor directly.
