* Revision 27919 added the ability to feed a libpcap-formatted file toGerald Combs2010-10-151-2/+25
| | | | | | | | | | rawshark but broke the ability to feed it live packets with a pcap_pkthdr prefix on some 64-bit architectures. Add a "-p" flag which lets us explicitly handle file-based or memory-based packet record headers. svn path=/trunk/; revision=34522
* Rework "extended value strings":Bill Meier2010-10-141-5/+21
| | | | | | | | | - Allow direct access when a range of values begins with a value other than 0; - Provide value_string_ext_new() for creating extended value strings at runtime; - Do access to value_string_ext members via a macro (all but value_string.c); - Update documentation. svn path=/trunk/; revision=34514

* Introduce 2 new environment variables: WIRESHARK_EP_VERIFY_POINTERS andJeff Morriss2010-09-023-16/+58
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | WIRESHARK_SE_VERIFY_POINTERS that control whether or not we verify if a given pointer is ep_ or se_ allocated, respectively. Turn the behavior off by default for speed reasons (the speed difference isn't huge, but...). Turn the behavior on when fuzz testing. Document these two new variables in the man pages. svn path=/trunk/; revision=34046
* Add ws_load_library and ws_module_open, which respectively callGerald Combs2010-08-251-1/+1
| | | | | | | | | LoadLibrary and g_module_open only for the program directory and system directory on Windows. Use them to replace a bunch of LoadLibrary and g_module_open calls. Use the extension ".dll" for all the DLLs that we load. Add comments about DLL loading in Python. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33924

* From Jan Šafránek:Jaap Keuter2010-07-133-3/+173
| | | | | | | | dftest and randpkt are installed during make install, but they are not documented in any man page. This is a start. It's more or less a compilation of information found elsewhere. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33504

* From Jim Young:Anders Broman2010-06-181-0/+92
| | | | | | | | | The attached patch simply documents a long supported but hidden tshark -G option. Tshark's print_usage() has been augmented as well as the tshark man page. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33253
* From Reinhard Speyerer via bug 4779:Gerald Combs2010-06-031-4/+5
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | From reading the rawshark(1) manpage my assumption was that rawshark could be used like $ /usr/bml/bin/rawshark -s -r test.pcap -d encap:EN10MB ... However rawshark either expects the -r argument to be - (read from stdin) or a pipe which results in the following error message: rawshark: ".../test.pcap" is neither an interface nor a pipe The proposed rawshark.pod patch updates the -r description to the implemented rawshark functionality. The patch also applies to the current SVN version. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33063
* From Jim Young via bug 4331:Gerald Combs2010-06-021-0/+42
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | This patch adds a new '-S' option to editcap that will rewrite timestamps of packets to insure that the new capture file is in strict chronological order. This option's primary use case is to fixup the occasional timestamps that have a negative delta time relative to previous packet. This feature is related to (but does not depend on) capinfos enhancement submitted in bug #4315 which helps identify tracefiles with "out-of-order" packets. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33042
* From Jim Young via bug 4049:Gerald Combs2010-06-021-0/+7
| | | | | | | | This patch adds a new '-o' option to capinfos (enabled by default) to report if the packets within a particular capture file are in strict chronological time order or not. svn path=/trunk/; revision=33041

* Put in a warning about the <stdarg.h> problem that I just found andGuy Harris2010-05-261-0/+20
| | | | | | fixed in one place (and am now fixing in some other places). svn path=/trunk/; revision=32962
* Add a -q flag to dumpcap, to squelch its reporting of the packet count,Guy Harris2010-05-261-0/+12
| | | | | | | and add support for SIGINFO, so, if your OS supports SIGINFO, you can get the packet count by typing ^T. svn path=/trunk/; revision=32958

* Refer to the endianness arguments as "encoding" rather thanGuy Harris2010-05-241-3/+3
| | | | | | | | | | "representation" - we already use "representation" to refer to the text representation of fields. Change some routines with an endianness argument to make it a representation argument instead; svn path=/trunk/; revision=32929

| | | | | | | | | | | | being the only program that needs to be linked with *pcap, that's when we'd want to fetch that information, but there might be other libraries (e.g., the POSIX capabilities library) that it might be linked with but that programs that use it aren't linked with. Don't commit to the output formats of -M, as they are, as noted, subject to change from release to release. svn path=/trunk/; revision=32904
* Don't write the SP_SUCCESS messages unless -Z was specified.Guy Harris2010-05-181-2/+11
| | | | | | | | | | | | | Add support for a machine-readable "-v" output, which prints only the pcap version string. Give a little more information about the machine-readable format, but note that it's primarily intended for consumption by Wireshark and TShark and is subject to change. Properly hyphenate "pcap-ng". svn path=/trunk/; revision=32851

* The default capture buffer size is, in fact, *nominally* 1MB; however,Guy Harris2010-05-082-8/+14
| | | | | | | | libpcap/WinPcap and the capture mechanism atop which they run might either silently limit the buffer size to a smaller value or raise it to a higher value - that's the part that's platform-dependent. svn path=/trunk/; revision=32718
