  Log:
  dnsjava is an implementation of DNS in Java. It supports all defined record
  types (including the DNSSEC types), and unknown types. It can be used for
  queries, zone transfers, and dynamic updates. It includes a cache which can be
  used by clients, and a minimal implementation of a server. It supports TSIG
  authenticated messages, partial DNSSEC verification, and EDNS0.
  
  dnsjava provides functionality above and beyond that of the InetAddress class.
  Since it is written in pure Java, dnsjava is fully threadable, and in many
  cases is faster than using InetAddress.
  
  dnsjava provides both high and low level access to DNS. The high level
  functions perform queries for records of a given name, type, and class, and
  return an array of records. There is also a clone of InetAddress, which is even
  simpler. A cache is used to reduce the number of DNS queries sent. The low
  level functions allow direct manipulation of DNS messages and records, as well
  as allowing additional resolver properties to be set.
