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.

"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.

and generates the path name; have it, if the file is to be opened for

directory in which global data files are stored. If an installed binary
is being run, that's the correct directory for them; if a build-tree
binary is being run, the "manuf" file will be there, and you can put
other data files there as well, if necessary.
Do the same with plugins, except that, if there's no
"plugins\\{version}" subdirectory of that directory, fall back on the
default installation directory, so you at least have a place where you
can put plugins for use by build-tree binaries. (Should we, instead,
have the Windows build procedure create a subdirectory of the "plugins"
source directory, with the plugin version number as its name, and copy
the plugins there, so you'd use the build-tree plugin binaries?)
Move "test_for_directory()" out of "util.c" and into

a "Match Selected" on it - we can't do a "Match Selected" if the field
has no value (e.g., FT_NULL) and has a length of 0.
If we unselect the current packet, we don't have a protocol tree, so we
don't have a currently selected field - clear the "Match Selected" menu
item and the display in the status line of information about the
currently selected field.
Move the low-level statusbar manipulation into "gtk/main.c", in routines
whose API doesn't expose anything GTK+-ish.
"close_cap_file()" calls one of those routines to clear out the status
bar, so it doesn't need to take a pointer to the statusbar widget as an
argument.
"clear_tree_and_hex_views()" is purely a display-manipulating routine;
move it to "gtk/proto_draw.c".
Extract from "tree_view_unselect_row_cb()" an "unselect_field()" routine
to do all the work that needs to be done if the currently selected
protocol tree row is unselected, and call it if the currently selected
packet list row is unselected (if it's unselected, there *is* no
protocol tree, so no row can be selected), as well as from
"tree_view_unselect_row_cb()".
Before pushing a new field-description message onto the statusbar, pop
the old one off.

selection change event on the list of filters. Unfortunately, this can
happen after some other widgets in that dialog box have already been
destroyed - including some of the widgets that such a selection change
event can change.
This sometimes happened when "filter_prefs_delete()" hadn't been called,
so the mechanism we had been using, with a Boolean datum attached to the
dialog box, set in "filter_prefs_delete()" before we actually destroy
the dialog box, wasn't sufficient to keep that from happening.
Attach to the top-level window data items containing pointers to the
widgets changed when a filter is selected from the list, give each of
those widgets their own destroy callbacks, clear the pointer attached to
the top-level widget when the widget is destroyed, and don't do anything
to the widget when a filter is selected from the list if the pointer for
that widget is null, as that means the widget's been destroyed and we
*can't* do anything to it.
Not all filter editing dialogs created on behalf of a "Filter:" button
next to a text entry box should, when you click "OK", activate the text
entry box; if the text entry box is part of a dialog box with multiple
widgets, the user might not have filled in all of the items in that
dialog box, so you shouldn't activate it for them. Add a mechanism by
which, when creating a filter editing dialog box, you can specify
whether the "OK" button should just fill in the text entry box or should
fill it in and also activate it.

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

- remove the check of multiple inclusions in source (.c) code
(there is a bit loss of _cpp_ performance, but I prefer the gain of
code reading and maintenance; and nowadays, disk caches and VM are
correctly optimized ;-).
- protect all (well almost) header files against multiple inclusions
- add header (i.e. GPL license) in some include files
- reorganize a bit the way header files are included:
First:
#include <system_include_files>
#include <external_package_include_files (e.g. gtk, glib etc.)>
Then
#include "ethereal_include_files"
with the correct HAVE_XXX or NEED_XXX protections.
- add some HAVE_XXX checks before including some system header files
- add the same HAVE_XXX in wiretap as in ethereal
Please forgive me, if I break something (I've only compiled and regression
tested on Linux).

To test whether a file the user selected to be opened from the file
selection box is really a directory (so that we can point the file
selection box at it, rather than trying to open the directory as a
capture file, which wouldn't work), use the routine in question.
To make the GTK+ file selection box start out in the last directory from
which we opened a file, use "gtk_file_selection_complete()", rather than
"chdir()"ing to that directory.
Those changes keep us from "chdir()"ing all over the place; that way, if
Ethereal dumps core, the core dump shows up in the directory from which
it was run, rather than in the directory from which you last opened or
into which you last saved a file.

reading a capture file, we should just clean up and return so that

running with no capture file loaded even in that case).

a pointer to the "wtap_pkthdr" structure for an open capture
file;
a pointer to the "wtap_pseudo_header" union for an open capture
file;
a pointer to the packet buffer for an open capture file;
so that a program using "wtap_read()" in a loop can get at those items.
Keep, in a "capture_file" structure, an indicator of whether:
no file is open;
a file is open, and being read;
a file is open, and is being read, but the user tried to quit
out of reading the file (e.g., by doing "File/Quit");
a file is open, and has been completely read.
Abort if we try to close a capture that's being read if the user hasn't
tried to quit out of the read.
Have "File/Quit" check if a file is being read; if so, just set the
state indicator to "user tried to quit out of it", so that the code
reading the file can do what's appropriate to clean up, rather than
closing the file out from under that code and causing crashes.
Have "read_cap_file()" read the capture file with a loop using
"wtap_read()", rather than by using "wtap_loop()"; have it check after
reading each packet whether the user tried to abort the read and, if so,
close the capture and return an indication that the read was aborted by
the user. Otherwise, return an indication of whether the read
completely succeeded or failed in the middle (and, if it failed, return
the error code through a pointer).
Have "continue_tail_cap_file()" read the capture file with a loop using
"wtap_read()", rather than by using "wtap_loop()"; have it check after
reading each packet whether the user tried to abort the read and, if so,
quit the loop, and after the loop finishes (even if it read no packets),
return an indication that the read was aborted by the user if that
happened. Otherwise, return an indication of whether the read
completely succeeded or failed in the middle (and, if it failed, return
the error code through a pointer).
Have "finish_tail_cap_file()" read the capture file with a loop using
"wtap_read()", rather than by using "wtap_loop()"; have it check after
reading each packet whether the user tried to abort the read and, if so,
quit the loop, and after the loop finishes (even if it read no packets),
close the capture and return an indication that the read was aborted by
the user if that happened. Otherwise, return an indication of whether
the read completely succeeded or failed in the middle (and, if it
failed, return the error code through a pointer).
Have their callers check whether the read was aborted or not and, if it
was, bail out in the appropriate fashion (exit if it's reading a file
specified by "-r" on the command line; exit the main loop if it's
reading a file specified with File->Open; kill the capture child if it's
"continue_tail_cap_file()"; exit the main loop if it's
"finish_tail_cap_file()".

"global" dialog box when "Edit:Filters" is selected, so that the list of
filters can be edited, and "filter_browse_cb()", which pops up a dialog
box associated with a "Filter:" button and a text entry widget attached
to that button, so that a filter can be selected or saved (although it
also supports the same editing that the "global" dialog box does).
Have "filter_dialog_cb()" connect the window in which the "Filter:"
button lives and the filter dialog box, so that:
if the window in which the "Filter:" button lives goes away, so
does the filter dialog box (as it no longer has a text widget
into which it can stuff the selected filter);
if the "Filter:" button is clicked when there's already a filter
dialog box open, we just reactivate that existing dialog box
rather than popping up a new one.
Also keep a pointer to the "global" filter dialog box, so that we also
arrange that there's only one of them (by reactivating the existing on
if "Edit:Filters" is selected when there's already a "global" filter
dialog box open).
Keep around pointers to the dialog boxes that contain the "Filter:"
buttons, so that we can arrange that there be only one of them (that was
a side-effect of an earlier attempt at fixing the problems described
above, but it's still useful for keeping multiple competing dialog boxes
from being open - there's more of that to be done).
Make the pointer to the "Open Capture File" dialog box widget static to
"file_dlg.c" - nobody outside of "file_dlg.c cares about it.

packets that are currently being displayed from that capture.
Centralize the code to control whether "File:Save" and "File:Save As"
are enabled (and *always* have "File:Save As" enabled if you have a
capture; "File:Save" is enabled only if you have a live capture you've
not yet saved, although it does the same thing as "File:Save As").
Have the "save_file" member of a "capture_file" structure represent
*only* the file currently being *written* to by a capture, and, if there
is no capture currently in progress, have it be NULL; the name of the
file currently being *displayed" is in the "filename" member, and an
"is_tempfile" member indicates whether it's a temporary file for a live
capture or not.
Have "close_cap_file()" delete the current capture file if it's a
temporary capture file that hasn't been saved (in its entirety - saving
selected frames doesn't count). Do the same (if there *is* a current
capture file) when exiting.
The "Ready to load or capture" message is the only statusbar message in
the "main" context; "close_cap_file()" should never pop it, it should
only pop whatever message exists in the "file" context, and thus has no
need to take, as an argument, the context for the message it should pop.
Update the man page to reflect the new behavior of "File:Save" and
"File:Save As", and to reflect recent changes to "Display:Match Selected".

Have it check whether the filter is a null filter and, if so, free up

than as a blank string in the summary box.)
