capture callbacks the capture_options * as its second argument in all
cases. This makes it a bit clearer what arguments callbacks take, and
means we can get rid of all global_capture_opts references in
gtk/main_statusbar.c.
Put the interface between gtk/main.c and gtk/main_statusbar.c into a
private header.

the capture_opts structure as an argument, rather than just a pointer to
the interface name.
Don't declare a global "capture_opts" pointer, as we don't define it any
more.

While doing that, rename the eth_* functions to ws_*.

rewrite the tshark capture code almost completely, to use dumpcap instead of it's own pcap functionality.
This works on Win32 and should work on unix/linux (but I'm not sure here). Some stuff needs to be cleaned up, some more may need to be rewritten to specifically work with unix/win32. Futher work needs to be done at:
1. read filters (simply document current behaviour?)
2. event loop polling
3. privileges
4. code cleanup (e.g. in capture_loop.c)
Be prepared that tshark might not work as before / expected at least in the next days!

of the last pcap_open_live() call in the GUI code. Update

that "-D" and "-L" should produce machine-readable output. Use this to
move an indirect get_pcap_linktype() call from the GUI to dumpcap.

anywhere else). Instead of using getaddrinfo() and getnameinfo(),
promote inet_pton.c and inet_ntop.c to the top level and use those
routines instead.
(It's 2007, for crying out loud. Why is this even an issue?)
svn path=/trunk/; revision=22075
Add a capture_interface_list(), which works similar to
get_interface_list() except that it forks dumpcap instead of calling
the pcap routines directly. Use it in the GUI.
Add a "-I" flag to dumpcap, which prints out verbose interface
information.
Tested under Windows and Linux.

I've also changed the way the secondary error message is transported from former "header message 0 secondary 0" to "header header message 0 header secondary 0" as that might be a bit more clearer, and I'll need it for further development anyway.
I was using this while debugging and not recognizing the real problem - for about four hours :-(. I'll need this feature when doing the interface (and link layer type) browsing later (transferring this data from dumpcap to Ethereal) to get a full blown privilege seperation.

primary and secondary error messages and let the parent worry about how
to display them. This means dumpcap doesn't need stub routines for
generating the formatting tags for the primary and secondary messages.
Have a separate message for capture filter errors, so that the parent
can check whether the capture filter looks like a display filter and
report the appropriate message. This means that dumpcap doesn't need a
stub routine for compiling display filters (a stub routine also means
that Ethereal won't do the check for capture filters that look like
display filters!).

In "capture_input_new_file()", don't call the callbacks unless we
succeed in opening the new file. Have "capture_info_new_file()" return
a success/failure indication.
Improve the message logged when we fail to open the new file if we're
only opening it for the quick packet counts. We really should put up an
alert box and give up on the capture at that point.

this way, the capture prefix will "logically" group the files together and file browsers will also group them
we may want to move the files into a subdir capture later

This way, the capture child don't need to now any of the packet_counter things (no epan/packet.h and all alike).
Currently the capture_info code will always open another wiretap file instance to build it's own counter values. This isn't optimized for now (next step: use data from cf_continue_tail() somehow).

This way we might get less user questions on the users-mailing list ...

to do this, I've added file_util.h to wiretap (would file_compat.h be a better name?), and provide compat_macros like eth_open() instead of open(). While at it, move other file related things there, like #include <io.h>, definition of O_BINARY and alike, so it's all in one place.
deleted related things from config.h.win32
As of these massive changes, I'm almost certain that this will break the Unix build. I'll keep an eye on the buildbot so hopefully everything is working again soon.

cf_cb_file_closing (called before closing a capture file) cf_cb_file_closed will be called afterwards, but both only if a file is really closed as cf_close is called more often ...
If we are closing large capture files (~20MB), the screen looks ugly while the file is closed. Change this so the screen will immediately go back to initial state and a dialog (without buttons) is shown that the file is currently closed. As the operation which takes most of the time to close the file is a single eth_clist_clear call, we can't use a progress bar here.
cf_cb_live_capture_stopping: called when the user wants to stop the capture (toolbar or menu clicked). At least on Win32, the time between this and the actual stop completed can be noticeable (1-2 seconds), so the user doesn't know if the button press did anything at all. Do something similar as above, show a dialog box without buttons to inform that the close is in progress.

If this is used together with an option where input files changes too fast (e.g. new file every second), capturing will be (hopefully) stopped.
I've replaced the former capture pipe message format into a somewhat more general format to remove a lot of confusion.
