To complete the set of equality operators add an "all equal"
operator that matches a frame if all fields match the condition.
The symbol chosen for "all_eq" is "===".
Repeated words were found with:
egrep "(\b[a-zA-Z]+) +\1\b" . -Ir
and then manually reviewed.
Non-displayed strings (e.g., in comments)
were also corrected, to ease future review.
Qt's documentation recommends using CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH to designate your
Qt installation prefix: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/cmake-get-started.html.
Do so in GitLab's CI and update the Developer's Guide.
Update to reflect the transition from C99 to C11. Remove obsolete
comments and recommendations. Add a bit about transitioning to C
fixed width types.
Related to #17768.
Remove the update_tools_help target. Despite the comment, the weekly
update job doesn't use it, we don't have targets for our other update
scripts, and it currently causes issues if BUILD_tshark is disabled.
Fixes#17766.
Add an UAT for configuring fake headers according to the server port, stream
id and direction of the long-lived stream that we start capturing packets
after it is established. That helps to parsing the DATAs captured subsequently.
A testcase also added.
close#17691
For double quoted strings. This is consistent with single quote
character constants and the C standard. It also avoids common
mistakes where the superfluous backslash is silently suppressed.
Change our developer.gnome.org/glib URLs to
developer-old.gnome.org/glib. The official documentation for GLib
appears to be at https://docs.gtk.org/glib/, but it has a different
layout than the gnome.org content (and is surprisingly resistant to
exploration IMHO). We can switch to developer-old.gnome.org using a
simple substitution and it still seems to be updated, so do that for
now.
PCRE2 is mature, widely used and widely available. Supporting two
different RE implementations, one of which is unmaintained, is
unnecessary and counter-productive.
PCRE2 is the future of PCRE. The only advantage of GRegex is that
it comes bundled with GLib, which is not an advantage at all.
PCRE2 is widely available, the GRegex abstractions layer are not a
good fit and abstract things that don't need abstracting or that we
could handle better ourselves, there are open bugs (#12997) and
maintenance is spotty at best.
GRegex comes with many of the problems of bundled code, aggravated by
the fact that it completely falls outside of our control.
Deprecate the usage of significant whitespace to separate set elements
(or anywhere else for that matter). This will make the implementation
simpler and cleaner and the language more expressive and user-friendly.
When OpenReceiveChannel/OpenReceiveChannelAck and
StartMediaTransmission/StartMediaTransmissionAck messages are seen, RTP
streams are created so Wireshark decodes related UDP as RTP.
Note: Multichannel commands (e.g. OpenMultiMediaReceiveChannel) are not
processed as I have no sample to test it.
Wireshark defines the relation of equality A == B as
A any_eq B <=> An == Bn for at least one An, Bn.
More accurately I think this is (formally) an equivalence
relation, not true equality.
Whichever definition for "==" we choose we must keep the
definition of "!=" as !(A == B), otherwise it will
lead to logical contradictions like (A == B) AND (A != B)
being true.
Fix the '!=' relation to match the definition of equality:
A != B <=> !(A == B) <=> A all_ne B <=> An != Bn, for
every n.
This has been the recomended way to write "not equal" for a
long time in the documentation, even to the point where != was
deprecated, but it just wasn't implemented consistently in the
language, which has understandably been a persistent source
of confusion. Even a field that is normally well-behaved
with "!=" like "ip.src" or "ip.dst" will produce unexpected
results with encapsulations like IP-over-IP.
The opcode ALL_NE could have been implemented in the compiler
instead using NOT and ANY_EQ but I chose to implement it in
bytecode. It just seemed more elegant and efficient
but the difference was not very significant.
Keep around "~=" for any_ne relation, in case someone depends
on that, and because we don't have an operator for true equality:
A strict_equal B <=> A all_eq B <=> !(A any_ne B).
If there is only one value then any_ne and all_ne are the same
comparison operation.
Implementing this change did not require fixing any tests so it
is unlikely the relation "~=" (any_ne) will be very useful.
Note that the behaviour of the '<' (less than) comparison relation
is a separate, more subtle issue. In the general case the definition
of '<' that is used is only a partial order.
This is a first pass that covers the WSDG, WSUG, man page, a code
comment and a README. Plenty left to do in the Debian files, a few
Lua examples and other misc files.
