SYNOPSIS
#include <ares.h>
ares_set_sortlist(3) channel, const char *sortstr)
DESCRIPTION
The ares_set_sortlist(3) function initializes an address sortlist con-
figuration for the channel data identified by channel, so that
addresses returned by ares_gethostbyname(3) are sorted according to the
sortlist. The provided sortstr string that holds a space separated
list of IP-address-netmask pairs. The netmask is optional but follows
the address after a slash if present. For example,
"130.155.160.0/255.255.240.0 130.155.0.0".
This function replaces any potentially previously configured address
sortlist with the ones given in the configuration string.
