setting, and is used only in dumpcap.c, and needs to get at information
set by dumpcap's signal handlers so it can respond to ^C; move it to
dumpcap.c, rename it print_statistics_loop(), and make it set ld.go to
TRUE before looping and loop only as long as ld.go is TRUE.
That fixes bug 2592 (at least on Mac OS X, and probably on other UN*Xes;
it should fix it on Windows as well).

libwireshark (and the plugins using those functions) do not depend on
wiretap on Windows.
While doing that, rename the eth_* functions to ws_*.

On glib-1.2 systems g_ascii_strcasecmp() is in libwireshark (which we don't
want to include in dumpcap) and anyway our code should be the only thing
calling dumpcap with "-Z"--so hopefully there's no need for doing a
case-insensitive comparison.
(This is another argument for adding a "utils" library.)

1. Clean up dumpcap 'as a child' err msg handling so that:
- all err msgs are properly formatted when being sent
back to the parent.
- any log Critical, Warning, etc messages
are sent back to parent and are properly formatted.
2. Change handling of -w <...> slightly in capture_opts.c
so that wireshark provides a good error message if
there is a 'write permissions' issue on the file.
(Previously the error popup said only
"Child exited with status 2").
This fixes bug #2288.
Add some conditionalized DEBUG_CHILD_DUMPCAP code for
dumpcap debug logging to a file.

opening the capture device. That somewhat fixes bug 2273, although the
second and subsequent files don't have the right group ownership,
probably because of the problem described in the comment before
relinquish_special_privs_perm().
We should also relinquish special privileges *before* trying to open the
capture pipe, so that we can't open a pipe to which the real user
doesn't have access.

does capturing any more. (We will be inserting a call to give up
privileges after the pcap_open_live(), which should fix 2273; we're
currently only giving up privileges on platforms with libcap.)

pipe instead of stdin. Add an argument (currently the parent PID) back
to the "-Z" flag and use it to construct the pipe name. This lets us
pass the parent's stdin handle to dumpcap, which lets us capture from
stdin on Windows. Add a comment about checking for the parent process.
In capture_loop.c, remove the wait_forever argument from cap_pipe_select()
since it was always FALSE. Set the timeout under Windows to 250 ms
instead of 250000 ms.

dumpcap, when using it as a capture child; leave the standard output
alone, in case tshark was told to write the capture to the standard
error.
Get rid of the argument to the "-Z" option to dumpcap; it might not work
on Windows.

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

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.

Rename 'svnversion' to 'wireshark_svnversion' to resolve a symbol conflict with
GTK 2.10.6 (hmm, shouldn't GTK not be exporting that symbol or at least naming
it so as to prevent such collisions? Well, so should we, so...)
From Andreas Fink: change #ifdef for size_t in airdcap_interop.h to fix

version string, so the information comes out right for applications that
don't use Portaudio.
Get rid of an extra "with" in the version string for dumpcap.
Get rid of an extra blank after the libpcap version string, and get rid
of an extra newline before it.
Attempt to add more compiler version information and to prettify the
MSVC++ version information (both untested).

Add partial support for reading from named pipes (currently disabled).
Move utf_8to16() and utf_16to8() to a separate module (unicode-utils.[ch])

Fix up whitespace.

by dumpcap and Ethereal (so that, on UN*X, the child process can report
a detailed "can't exec dumpcap" error).
Rename most of the "sync_pipe_XXX_to_parent()" routines, as they're also
in Tethereal, which doesn't have a sync pipe.

even if doing a live capture; just print the packets without saving
them.
In dumpcap:
default to the capturing the entire packet;
don't do the "Press any key" stuff when debugging on UN*X;
do console logging (to the standard error) even when we're
running as the capture child (the sync pipe should only be the
standard output, not the standard error).

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
no longer needs util.c, so it no longer includes routines that use
host_ip_af(), so it no longer needs to define its own host_ip_af().
That also means dumpcap.c no longer needs to include <sys/socket.h>.
