ARES_QUEUE(3)		   Library Functions Manual		 ARES_QUEUE(3)

NAME
       ares_queue_wait_empty, ares_queue_active_queries	- Functions for	check-
       ing the c-ares queue status

SYNOPSIS
       #include	<ares.h>

       size_t ares_queue_active_queries(const ares_channel_t *channel);

       ares_status_t ares_queue_wait_empty(ares_channel_t *channel,
					   int timeout_ms);

DESCRIPTION
       The ares_queue_active_queries(3)	function retrieves the total number of
       active  queries	pending	answers	from servers. Some c-ares requests may
       spawn multiple queries, such as ares_getaddrinfo(3) when	 using	AF_UN-
       SPEC,  which  will  be  reflected in this number. The channel parameter
       must be set to an initialized channel.

       The ares_queue_wait_empty(3) function blocks until notified that	 there
       are  no	longer	any queries in queue, or the specified timeout has ex-
       pired. The channel parameter must be set	to an initialized channel. The
       timeout_ms parameter is the number of  milliseconds  to	wait  for  the
       queue to	be empty or -1 for Infinite.

RETURN VALUES
       ares_queue_active_queries(3) returns the	active query count.

       ares_queue_wait_empty(3)	can return any of the following	values:

       ARES_ENOTIMP  if	not built with threading support

       ARES_ETIMEOUT if	requested timeout expired

       ARES_SUCCESS  when queue	is empty.

       AVAILABILITY
	      This function was	first introduced in c-ares version 1.27.0, and
	      requires the c-ares library to be	built with threading support.
