*
* This module provides function to resolve Internet address of the
* specified host name. To resolve a particular host name, application
* can just call #pj_gethostbyname().
*
* Example:
* <pre>
* ...
* pj_hostent he;
* pj_status_t rc;
* pj_str_t host = pj_str("host.example.com");
*
* rc = pj_gethostbyname( &host, &he);
* if (rc != PJ_SUCCESS) {
* char errbuf[80];
* pj_strerror( rc, errbuf, sizeof(errbuf));
* PJ_LOG(2,("sample", "Unable to resolve host, error=%s", errbuf));
* return rc;
* }
*
* // process address...
* addr.sin_addr.s_addr = *(pj_uint32_t*)he.h_addr;
* ...
* </pre>
*
* It's pretty simple really...
