Parameters

hostName
String

The DNS name of the host.

requestCallback
AsyncCallback

An AsyncCallback delegate that references the method to invoke when the operation is complete.

stateObject
Object

A user-defined object that contains information about the operation. This object is passed to the requestCallback delegate when the operation is complete.

Returns

An IAsyncResult instance that references the asynchronous request.

Attributes

Exceptions

hostName is null.

An error was encountered executing the DNS query.

Remarks

The asynchronous BeginGetHostByName operation must be completed by calling the EndGetHostByName method. Typically, the method is invoked by the requestCallback delegate.

This method does not block until the operation is complete. To block until the operation is complete, use the GetHostByName method.

Note

This member emits trace information when you enable network tracing in your application. For more information, see Network Tracing in the .NET Framework.
