2004-07-18Move dissectors to epan/dissectors directory.Gilbert Ramirez1-16/+16
Also move ncp222.py, x11-fields, process-x11-fields.pl, make-reg-dotc, and make-reg-dotc.py. Adjust #include lines in files that include packet-*.h files. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11410

they have LF at the end of the line on UN*X and CR/LF on Windows; hopefully this means that if a CR/LF version is checked in on Windows, the CRs will be stripped so that they show up only when checked out on Windows, not on UN*X. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11400

2004-06-20added an option to "avoid" the capture info dialog completely.Ulf Lamping1-13/+30
This matters for "update of list in real time" (sync_mode) only, as in normal mode you wouldn't otherwise have the possibility to stop the capture. svn path=/trunk/; revision=11194
2004-05-09From Lars Roland: add support for building a libethereal.dll with MSVC:Guy Harris1-1/+5
add a config.nmake option to control whether to build libethereal.dll or not; remove "./wiretap" from PATH to prevent problems due to wrongly-loaded files; build dissector.lib with MSVC; move "print.c" and "ps.c" to the dissector helpers, as "print.c" imports variables from packet-frame.c and packet-data.c, which are in libethereal; move "g711.c" out of the dissector helpers, as they're used only by Ethereal in a tap, not in Tethereal or in any dissector; add a .def file for libethereal; arrange to declare global variables exported from libethereal with "__declspec(dllimport)" when building programs that import those variables; update the NSIS installer. Make the "configure" script define ETH_VAR_IMPORT as "extern". svn path=/trunk/; revision=10834

2004-01-31Pass ESD_BTN_OK rather than NULL as a second argument toGuy Harris1-20/+21
"simple_dialog()"; NULL might be #defined to be a pointer expression on some platforms, causing compiler warnings (and, on platforms where a null pointer doesn't have all its bits 0, possibly causing misbehavior, although I don't think there are any such platforms on which Ethereal runs). Don't allow 0 as button mask argument to "simple_dialog()". Squelch a compiler warning. Report fatal problems as errors, not warnings. Report file I/O errors with "file_open_error_message()". Report file write errors (including those reported by "close()", e.g. some errors writing to an NFS server) when saving raw packet data to a file. svn path=/trunk/; revision=9915

2004-01-31If "pcap_compile()" fails to compile an empty filter string (because,Guy Harris1-2/+2
for example, the libpcap code generator doesn't support the link-layer type for the capture), "dfilter_compile()" will succeed but return a null rfcode pointer. In that case, instead of telling people that it looks like a valid display filter (which it does, but it also looks like a complete list of all the Basque words likely to be known by Hammurabi :-)), and then crashing when we try to "free" that non-existent dfilter code, we just report it as a "sorry, couldn't compile that capture filter. svn path=/trunk/; revision=9912
2004-01-25Have the Wiretap open, read, and seek-and-read routines return, inGuy Harris1-2/+2
addition to an error code, an error info string, for WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED, WTAP_ERR_UNSUPPORTED_ENCAP, and WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD errors. Replace the error messages logged with "g_message()" for those errors with g_strdup()ed or g_strdup_printf()ed strings returned as the error info string, and change the callers of those routines to, for those errors, put the info string into the printed message or alert box for the error. Add messages for cases where those errors were returned without printing an additional message. Nobody uses the error code from "cf_read()" - "cf_read()" puts up the alert box itself for failures; get rid of the error code, so it just returns a success/failure indication. Rename "file_read_error_message()" to "cf_read_error_message()", as it handles read errors from Wiretap, and have it take an error info string as an argument. (That handles a lot of the work of putting the info string into the error message.) Make some variables in "ascend-grammar.y" static. Check the return value of "erf_read_header()" in "erf_seek_read()". Get rid of an unused #define in "i4btrace.c". svn path=/trunk/; revision=9852
2004-01-24Add a new "file_open_error_message()" routine in "epan/filesystem.c", toGuy Harris1-2/+3
translate UNIX errno values to a somewhat friendly message format string. Rename "file_open_error_message()" in "file.c" to "cf_open_error_message()", make "cf_open_error_message()" use the new "file_open_error_message()" for UNIX errno values, have "do_capture()" in "capture.c" use "file_open_error_message()" to report errors from "open()", and make "cf_open_error_message()" static as nothing outside "file.c" uses it. Do similar stuff in "tethereal.c". svn path=/trunk/; revision=9821

prevent problems when switching between GTK1 and GTK2 ethereal versions b.) added new feature "Edit->Go To First Packet" "Edit->Go To Last Packet" with corresponding menu and toolbar items c.) added new feature "View->Zoom In" / "View->Zoom Out" / View->Normal Size" with corresponding menu and toolbar items This feature will act as a "size offset" to the current fontsize, so that the packet list/tree view/... will have a larger/smaller font size. The value is stored inside the recent file. d.) Win32 only: Try to get the win32 system font and fontsize at program startup and show the menus/dialogs and such with the same font and fontsize like other win32 windows. This makes the program make a *lot* more feel like a normal win32 program. svn path=/trunk/; revision=9753

2003-05-15Implement a ring buffer switch duration:Laurent Deniel1-1/+21
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. svn path=/trunk/; revision=7678
