Hi Naveen,
When we initialize the c-ares library, using ares_init(), we get a OUT value
of type *ares_channel* .
You can call ares_getsock() on that channel ID, to get a list of socket
descriptors which are being used by c-ares library in that channel. This
list of socket fds can then be given to application - for whatever handling
it wants to do on it.
