Resolve a Hostname to an IP Address

See more Socket/SSL/TLS Examples

Demonstrates Socket.DnsLookup, which resolves a hostname and returns one numeric IP address.

use chilkat();

$socket = chilkat::CkSocket->new();

#  Resolve a hostname to a numeric IP address, waiting up to 5 seconds.
$ipAddress = $socket->dnsLookup("example.com",5000);
if ($socket->get_LastMethodSuccess() == 0) {
    print $socket->lastErrorText() . "\r\n";
    exit;
}

print "Resolved IP address: " . $ipAddress . "\r\n";
