Do not misuse the list of interfaces specified on the command
line anymore.
This patch does not provide any new functionality, it just
provides the base for future extensions like removing
remote interface, mulitple airpcap devices and multiple
pipes.
This patch was provided by Irene Ruengeler.

link-layer header types for interfaces; if special privileges are
necessary to open capture devices, Wireshark and TShark shouldn't have
those privileges, but dumpcap should.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=32104
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.

this in the GUI rather than calling pcap_stats() directly. This gets rid
of the last pcap_open_live() call in the GUI code. Update
README.packaging.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=22443
that "-D" and "-L" should produce machine-readable output. Use this to
move an indirect get_pcap_linktype() call from the GUI to dumpcap.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=22367
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!).
svn path=/trunk/; revision=17465
capture_input_drops
capture_input_error_message
and move the functionality from capture_sync.c to capture.c (just where it belongs)

necessary there.
Add a "cmdarg_err()" routine to report command-line option errors; it
creates a console if necessary, and prints the command name and the
trailing newline. Also add "cmdarg_err_cont()", which also creates a
console if necessary, and prints a trailing newline but no command name;
it's used to continue the message. Use those, rather than
"g_warning()", for errors.
That means that we no longer need to pass the command name to various
command-line argument parsing routines.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=16526
use the console_log_handler in main.c for win32 AND unix now
Currently use the log for the capturing engine (only), as I desperately needed a log output for debugging.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=14438
add a new feature to clear the currently captured packets and restart the capture with the previous parameters
various code cleanup and minor bugfixes
Win32: use millisecond resolution in capture_loop, to smooth screen update a bit (500ms instead of 1000ms)
svn path=/trunk/; revision=14059
most notably:
- moved opening of safe_file to the capture child (capture_loop.c)
- removed save_file_fd from capture_opts (no longer need to have it global)
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13953
- As capture.h is empty without libpcap defined, only include it in that
case and don't protect the file internally against libpcap any more.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13648
This is currently still disabled, as we cannot pass all required capture flags to the child process (lack of command line parameters).
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13558
move another two capture related fields (iface and cfilter) from cfile to capture_opts
also move the handling of capture related command line options from main.c to capture.c, that way a future privilege seperated capture program can use the same code to parse it's command line than Ethereal.
It might be even possible to share this parser code even with Tethereal, didn't took a closer look at this.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13320
split drag and drop support out of main.c into new file drag_and_drop.c, to reduce the size of main.c a bit.
Hopefully this won't break unix builds because of missing #include's, I will keep an eye on the buildbot
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13308
don't use global cfile at all but only an untpyed handle to call the cf_... functions in file.c
move the save_file member from capture_file to capture_opts, as it's only used while capturing and while preparing it
svn path=/trunk/; revision=13276
Hopefully the unspecified forward declaration of capture_options_t in main.h is portable, but buildbot will tell me. This way I need the internals of that struct only at the places I really use it.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=12853
they have LF at the end of the line on UN*X and CR/LF on Windows;
hopefully this means that if a CR/LF version is checked in on Windows,
the CRs will be stripped so that they show up only when checked out on
Windows, not on UN*X.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=11400
This matters for "update of list in real time" (sync_mode) only,
as in normal mode you wouldn't otherwise have the possibility
to stop the capture.
