a "keep reading" boolean value is returned from the function.
This avoids having to hack around the fact that some file formats truly
do have records that start at offset 0. (i4btrace and csids have no
file header. Neither does the pppdump-style file that I'm looking at right now).

there's no need to keep it around in memory - when the frame data is
read in when handing a frame, read in the information, if any, necessary
to reconstruct the frame header, and reconstruct it. This saves some
memory.
This requires that the seek-and-read function be implemented inside
Wiretap, and that the Wiretap handle remain open even after we've
finished reading the file sequentially.
This also points out that we can't really do X.25-over-Ethernet
correctly, as we don't know where the direction (DTE->DCE or DCE->DTE)
flag is stored; it's not clear how the Ethernet type 0x0805 for X.25
Layer 3 is supposed to be handled in any case. We eliminate
X.25-over-Ethernet support (until we find out what we're supposed to
do).

and nettl captures - a "start" field is used for capture files where the
time stamps on packets are relative to some initial time stamp, e.g. the
time the capture started, but those file formats use absolute time
stamps, so no "start" field is needed.
Make the "this is an HP-UX 11.x nettl capture" flag a member of the
private data structure for a nettl capture, rather than a global - it's
per-capture-file state.
Once the "start" field is removed from the RADCOM private data
structure, there's nothing left, so eliminate the private data
structure.

from the frame table - Network Monitor 2.x, at least, doesn't always
write frame N+1 right after frame N.
To do that, we need to mallocate a big array to hold the frame table,
and free it when we close the capture file; this requires that we have
capture-file-type-specific close routines as well as
capture-file-type-specific read routines - we let it the pointer to that
routine be null if it's not needed. Given that, we might as well get
rid of the switch statement in "wtap_close()", in favor of using
capture-file-type-specific close routines, as per the comment before
that switch statement.

hideous problem on FreeBSD 3.[23] (and perhaps other BSDs) if
HAVE_UNISTD_H is defined before "zlib.h" is included, turn "file_seek()"
into a subroutine defined in a file that *undefines* HAVE_UNISTD_H
before including "zlib.h", so that the *only* call to "gzseek()" is made
from a file that does not have HAVE_UNISTD_H defined when it includes
"zlib.h".
Move "file_error()" to that file while you're at it, so it holds all the
wrappers that hide the presence or absence of zlib from routines to read
capture files.
Turn "file.h", which declared those wrapper functions as well as wrapper
macros, into "file_wrapper.h" - it belongs with the "file_wrapper.c"
file that defines the wrapper functions, not with "file.c" which handles
higher-layer file access functions.
Remove the comment in "configure.in" that explained why defining
HAVE_UNISTD_H was a bad idea, as we're not obliged to define it and work
around the problem. (The comment in "file_wrapper.c" explains the
workaround.)

Assign a range of Wiretap errors for zlib errors, and have

The "fh" member of a "wtap" structure points to something constructed
from the "fd" member of that structure, so that closing the stream

gzip. The zLib library is used for this purpose. If zLib is not available
(or it's use is disabled by the --disable-zlib option to configure), you
can still compile Ethereal but it will be unable to read compressed capture
files.
IMPORTANT:
Now all file accesses to capture files should be done through special macros.
Specifically, for any use of the following functions on capture files, replace them.
The arguments for the right-side functions are exactly the same as for the
original stdio functions.
fopen file_open
fdopen filed_open
fread file_read
fwrite file_write
fseek file_seek
fclose file_close
ferror file_error

header fields we don't look at - some implementations of the standard
I/O library routines (e.g., the ones in Solaris 2.5.1, at least) appear
not to be clever enough to handle seeks that occur within the buffer by
moving the current buffer position; instead, they do a seek on the
underlying file descriptor *and* appear to throw out the buffer, forcing
them to do another read.
Instead, read the entire record header into a structure, and pick the
relevant bits out of it.
Also, skip over the FCS in LAPB captures by reading it rather than
seeking around it (should we put it in the pseudo-header?).

Add some level of decoding for ATM LANE, but not all of it; the rest,
including decoding non-LANE frames, is left as an exercise for somebody
who has captures they want to decode, an interest in decoding them, ATM
expertise, and time....

return 1 on success, -1 if they got an error, and 0 if the file isn't of
the type that file is checking for, and supply an error code if they
return -1; have "wtap_open_offline()" use that error code. Also, have
the per-capture-file-type open routines treat errors accessing the file
as errors, and return -1, rather than just returning 0 so that we try
another file type.
Have the per-capture-file-type read routines "wtap_loop()" calls return
-1 and supply an error code on error (and not, as they did in some
cases, call "g_error()" and abort), and have "wtap_loop()", if the read
routine returned an error, return FALSE (and pass an error-code-pointer
argument onto the read routines, so they fill it in), and return TRUE on
success.
Add some new error codes for them to return.
Now that "wtap_loop()" can return a success/failure indication and an
error code, in "read_cap_file()" put up a message box if we get an error
reading the file, and return the error code.
Handle the additional errors we can get when opening a capture file.
If the attempt to open a capture file succeeds, but the attempt to read
it fails, don't treat that as a complete failure - we may have managed
to read some of the capture file, and we should display what we managed
to read.
