       ldns_dname_compare, ldns_dname_interval-

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdint.h>
       #include <stdbool.h>

       #include <ldns/ldns.h>

       int ldns_dname_compare(const ldns_rdf *dname1, const ldns_rdf *dname2);

       int ldns_dname_interval(const ldns_rdf *prev, const  ldns_rdf  *middle,
       const ldns_rdf *next);

DESCRIPTION

       ldns_dname_compare()  Compares  the  two  dname  rdf’s according to the
              algorithm for ordering in RFC4034 Section 6.
              dname1: First dname rdf to compare
              dname2: Second dname rdf to compare
              Returns -1 if dname1 comes before  dname2,  1  if  dname1  comes
              after dname2, and 0 if they are equal.

       ldns_dname_interval()  check  if middle lays in the interval defined by
              prev and next prev <= middle < next. This is  usefull  for  nsec
              checking
              prev: the previous dname
              middle: the dname to check
              next:  the  next  dname  return  0  on error or unknown, -1 when
              middle is in the interval, +1 when not
