SOARecord getSerial()

[Tom T. <tkt...@gm...>]

I would appreciate some assistance using the getSerial() method.  I am in
the process of learning Java
so please forgive my ignorance and clumsiness.  As you can see below I can
retrieve the SOA record, but I'm unsure
how to grab just the serial number field.

Thank you for your time and assistance.


import org.xbill.DNS.*;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.net.UnknownHostException;

public class DNSTest1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) throws UnknownHostException,
TextParseException
    {

      SimpleResolver res = new SimpleResolver("192.168.22.187");
      Lookup lookup = new Lookup("mydomain.com", Type.SOA);
      lookup.setResolver(res);
      lookup.run();
      System.out.println(lookup.getAnswers()[0]);

    }
}

mydomain.com. 3600 IN SOA dns1.mydomain.com. abuse.mydomain.com. 326178217
10800 3600 1209600 3600
