=== New and Updated Features
The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
-since version 2.5.0:
-
-* HTTP Request sequences are now supported.
-* Wireshark now supports MaxMind DB files. Support for GeoIP and GeoLite
- Legacy databases has been removed.
-* The Windows packages are now built using Microsoft Visual Studio 2017.
-* The IP map feature (the “Map” button in the “Endpoints” dialog) has been removed.
+since version 2.6.0:
-The following features are new (or have been significantly updated)
-since version 2.4.0:
-
-* Display filter buttons can now be edited, disabled, and removed via a context
- menu directly from the toolbar
-* Drag & Drop filter fields to the display filter toolbar or edit to create
- a button on the fly or apply the filter as a display filter.
-* Application startup time has been reduced.
-* Some keyboard shortcut mix-ups have been resolved by assigning new shortcuts
- to Edit -> Copy methods.
-* TShark now supports color using the --color option.
-* The "matches" display filter operator is now case-insensitive.
-* Display expression (button) preferences have been converted to a UAT.
- This puts the display expressions in their own file. Wireshark still
- supports preference files that contain the old preferences, but new
- preference files will be written without the old fields.
-* SMI private enterprise numbers are now read from the "enterprises.tsv" configuration file.
-* The QUIC dissector has been renamed to **G**oogle QUIC (quic -> **g**quic).
-* The selected packet number can now be shown in the Status Bar by enabling
- Preferences -> Appearance -> Layout -> Show selected packet number.
-* File load time in the Status Bar is now disabled by default and can be enabled in
- Preferences -> Appearance -> Layout -> Show file load time.
-* Support for the G.729A codec in the RTP Player is now added via the bcg729 library.
-* Support for hardware-timestamping of packets has been added.
-* Improved NetMon .cap support with comments, event tracing, network filter,
- network info types and some Message Analyzer exported types.
-* The personal plugins folder on Linux/Unix is now {tilde}/.local/lib/wireshark/plugins.
-* TShark can print flow graphs using `-z flow…`
-* Capinfos now prints SHA256 hashes in addition to RIPEMD160 and SHA1. MD5 output
- has been removed.
-* The packet editor has been removed. (This was a GTK+ only experimental feature.)
-* Support BBC micro:bit Bluetooth profile
-* The Linux and UNIX installation step for Wireshark will now install
- headers required to build plugins. A pkg-config file is provided to
- help with this (see doc/plugins.example for details). Note you must
- still rebuild all plugins between minor releases (X.Y).
-* The Windows installers and packages now ship with Qt 5.9.4.
-* The generic data dissector can now uncompress zlib compressed data.
-* Dns Stats now support service-level stats.
-* Dns filters for retransmissions and unsolicited responses have been added.
-* The “tcptrace” TCP Stream graph now shows duplicate ACKS and zero
- window advertisements.
+* Watch this space.
