14 The ares_version function gets the library version as a string and
15 optionally as an integer stored in the version, argument. If you pass a
16 NULL, no integer is attempted to be returned.

18 The integer is built up as 24bit number, with 8 separate bits used for
19 major number, minor number and patch number. This makes a version
20 string such as 1.2.3 will be returned as the hexadecimal number
21 0x010203 (decimal 66051).
