THINFORecord = class(TTextRecord)
HINFO resource records are used to acquire general information about a host server. The main use is for protocols such as FTP that can use special procedures when talking between machines or operating systems of the same type.
An HINFO resoure record uses the same DNS packet layout as other TResultRecord-based responses, but extends the use of RData to include the following definition and format:
+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | | . . . CPU . . . | | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+ | | . . . OS . . . | | +--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+--+
Standard values for CPU and OS can be found in RFC 1010.
THINFORecord extends TTextRecord to implement the specifics of accessing RData values as properties, including CPU and OS. THINFORecord also overrides the Parse method to read the values in RData into their property counterparts.
