       ldns_rr_descript() returns the resource record descriptor for the given rr type.

              type: the type value of the rr type
              Returns the ldns_rr_descriptor for this type

       ldns_rr_descriptor_minimum()  returns  the  minimum number of rdata fields of the rr type this descriptor
              describes.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              Returns the minimum number of rdata fields

       ldns_rr_descriptor_maximum() returns the maximum number of rdata fields of the rr  type  this  descriptor
              describes.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              Returns the maximum number of rdata fields

       ldns_rr_descriptor_field_type()  returns the rdf type for the given rdata field number of the rr type for
              the given descriptor.

              descriptor: for an rr type
              field: the field number
              Returns the rdf type for the field
