# `tornado.platform.caresresolver` — Asynchronous DNS Resolver using C-Ares
This module contains a DNS resolver using the c-ares library (and itswrapper `pycares`).
*class *`tornado.platform.caresresolver.``CaresResolver`
Name resolver based on the c-ares library.
This is a non-blocking and non-threaded resolver. It may not producethe same results as the system resolver, but can be used for non-blockingresolution when threads cannot be used.
c-ares fails to resolve some names when `family` is `AF_UNSPEC`,so it is only recommended for use in `AF_INET` (i.e. IPv4). This isthe default for `tornado.simple_httpclient`, but other librariesmay default to `AF_UNSPEC`.
