when the new "Rotate capture file every n second(s)" checkbox or the
-b <# of file>[:<duration>] argument are used, [t]ethereal will skip to the
next ring buffer file if the specified duration has elapsed (even if the
specified capture size is not reached). This is useful when you want to have
separate capture files per hour or day for instance.
I let the autostop filesize parameter mandatory (i.e. the "rotate capture
file after n kilobytes") but this could be no longer strictly necessary when
that new feature is used ...
Another point: it might be interesting to really truncate the file at the
switch and not the closure ... According to user comments and my own real
case tests, I might plan to enhance this point and others (still ring buffer
related) in the future.

"destroy" signal handler for any button that pops up a filter; if the
button has a filter dialog box associated with it, it destroys that
dialog box.
Have the routines that create filter dialog boxes asociate the dialog
box with the button that created it, so that if the button is destroyed
the filter dialog box can be destroyed as well, and associate the button
with the dialog box.
This means that if a dialog box has a button to create a filter, we no
longer have to have the destroy handler for the dialog box destroy any
filters - that'll happen when the button in the dialog box is destroyed
as part of the process of destroying the dialog box.
Don't make the "Filter" buttons in the io_stat dialog box insensitive if
there's already a filter dialog box open - we can have more than one
open per dialog box.

In my recent patches to set and use a default directory, I neglected
to set the directory when the user enters a file name directly into the
"Capture Options" and "Print" dialogs instead of using the file dialog.
This set of patches corrects this.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=6318
Currently Ethereal sets and uses a default directory for reading
and writing, but only in some places. This set of patches extends
the setting of the default directory to the -w option as well as
the -r option, and causes all file dialogs to use and set the
default consistently. (I haven't changed the
Preferences/Printing/File dialog, though, as that's a special
case.)
There's also a fix for a bug where Ethereal was issuing the
message "Ring buffer requested, but capture isn't being saved to
a permanent file" even though a file was specified with -w.
There also appear to be some other cleanups in his patch.

Move the ringbuffer capture options from the "capture_file" structure to
the structure for capture options, as they're a property of an
in-progress capture, not a property of a particular capture file.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=4799
"capture_file" structure - they're a property of an in-progress capture,
not a property of an open capture file. Make them just variables.
The maximum number of packets to be captured should be a variable
separate from the "count" field in the "capture_file" structure - the
latter is a count of the packets in the capture file in question.
Have Boolean variables indicating whether a maximum packet count,
maximum capture file size, and maximum capture duration were specified.
If an option isn't set, and we're doing an "update list of packets in
real time" capture, don't pass the option to the child process with a
command-line argument.
Don't create "stop when the capture file reaches this size" or "stop
when the capture's run for this long" conditions if a maximum capture
file size or a maximum capture duration, respectively, haven't been
specified. Don't test or free a condition if it wasn't created.
Don't allow a 0 argument to the "-c" flag - the absence of a "-c" flag
is the way you specify "no limit on the number of packets".
Initialize the check boxes and spin buttons for the "maximum packets to
capture", "maximum capture size", and "maximum capture duration" options
to the values they had in the last capture. If an option wasn't
specified, don't read its value from the dialog box and set the
variable.
svn path=/trunk/; revision=4795
reading the capture file. Have callers of "wtap_snapshot_length()"
treat a value of 0 as "unknown", and default to WTAP_MAX_PACKET_SIZE (so
that, when writing a capture file in a format that *does* store the
snapshot length, we can at least put *something* in the file).
If we don't know the snapshot length of the current capture file, don't
display a value in the summary window.
Don't use "cfile.snap" as the snapshot length option when capturing -
doing so causes Ethereal to default, when capturing, to the snapshot
length of the last capture file that you read in, rather than to the
snapshot length of the last capture you did (or the initial default of
"no snapshot length").
Redo the "Capture Options" dialog box to group options into sections
with frames around them, and add units to the snapshot length, maximum
file size, and capture duration options, as per a suggestion by Ulf
Lamping. Also add units to the capture count option.
Make the snapshot length, capture count, maximum file size, and capture
duration options into a combination of a check box and a spin button.
If the check box is not checked, the limit in question is inactive
(snapshot length of 65535, no max packet count, no max file size, no max
capture duration); if it's checked, the spinbox specifies the limit.
Default all of the check boxes to "not checked" and all of the spin
boxes to small values.
Use "gtk_toggle_button_get_active()" rather than directly fetching the
state of a check box.

"epan/..." pathnames, so as to avoid collisions with header files in any
of the directories in which we look (e.g., "proto.h", as some other
package has its own "proto.h" file which it installs in the top-level
include directory).
Don't add "-I" flags to search "epan", as that's no longer necessary
(and we want includes of "epan" headers to fail if the "epan/" is left
out, so that we don't re-introduce includes lacking "epan/").

Separate the preferences value for those flags and the name resolution
code's value into separate variables; this means that the resolution
code no longer depends on the preferences code, and may let us
eventually have the current setting and the preference setting differ
(so that a user can temporarily override the preference setting without
causing subsequent saves of the preferences to save the temporary
value).
Add routines to create various types of widgets for preferences, and to
fetch the values for "enumerated" preferences, and use them both in the
code to handle hardwired preference pages and table-driven preference
pages.

insensitive, make its label sensitive or insensitive too.
When "update list of packets in real time" mode is on, make the ring
buffer mode toggle button, and the "number of ring buffer files" spin
button, insensitive, as ring buffer mode is not supported in "update
list of packets in real time" captures.
When "update list of packets in real time" mode is off, make the
auto-scroll mode button insensitive, as auto-scroll mode is meaningless
unless you're doing an "update list of packets in real time" capture.

files to get that big.
From Thomas Wittwer and Matthias Nyffenegger:
Support for "ring buffer mode", wherein there's a ring buffer of N
capture files; as each capture file reaches its maximum size (the ring
buffer works only with a maximum capture file size specified), Ethereal
rolls over to the next capture file in the ring buffer, replacing
whatever packets might be in it with new packets.

Put that wrapper, and the routine to get the interface list, in a

That means that I no longer need to distribute capture and non-capture
versions of Ethereal for Win32; one version (compiled with WinPcap headers)
can run on systems with or without WinPcap.
For systems that don't have WinPcap, instead of disabling the Capture
menu, Capture|Start brings up a dialogue informing the user that wpcap.dll
was not loadable, and gives a URL to the WinPcap home page.

the user may edit it afterwards, or may use the aforementioned dialog
box to construct a filter not in the list).
