2006-03-13fix bug #803: sync pipe on Win32 wasn't set to binary mode, so error message ↵Ulf Lamping1-2/+1
transport failed between Ethereal and dumpcap. 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. svn path=/trunk/; revision=17608
2006-03-05Pass two strings in capture child messages, so the child can sendGuy Harris1-8/+78
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
2006-03-01Clean up indentation a bit.Guy Harris1-5/+8
In "capture_input_new_file()", don't call the callbacks unless we succeed in opening the new file. Have "capture_info_new_file()" return a success/failure indication. Improve the message logged when we fail to open the new file if we're only opening it for the quick packet counts. We really should put up an alert box and give up on the capture at that point. svn path=/trunk/; revision=17437

2005-12-06we can even get error messages while we are capturing (e.g. when a network ↵Ulf Lamping1-3/+3
cable is unplugged) problem found by Joerg Mayer svn path=/trunk/; revision=16704
2005-12-06rename pcap-....c/.h files to capture-pcap-....c/.hUlf Lamping1-1/+1
this way, the capture prefix will "logically" group the files together and file browsers will also group them we may want to move the files into a subdir capture later svn path=/trunk/; revision=16691
2005-12-04move the complete functionality of the capture info dialog from ↵Ulf Lamping1-1/+15
capture_loop.c to capture_info.c and call it from capture.c (instead of capture_loop.c). This way, the capture child don't need to now any of the packet_counter things (no epan/packet.h and all alike). Currently the capture_info code will always open another wiretap file instance to build it's own counter values. This isn't optimized for now (next step: use data from cf_continue_tail() somehow). svn path=/trunk/; revision=16669

2005-11-25add some more help text to the "no packets captured" error dialog:Ulf Lamping1-5/+29
link to CaptureSetup wiki page Win32 only: wireless: "try switch off promicuous mode" This way we might get less user questions on the users-mailing list ... Especially the second one hopefully could save us from a lot of support mails :-) svn path=/trunk/; revision=16591
2005-11-06replace *a lot* of file related calls by their GLib counterparts. This is ↵Ulf Lamping1-5/+2
necessary for the switch to GTK 2.6 (at least on WIN32). to do this, I've added file_util.h to wiretap (would file_compat.h be a better name?), and provide compat_macros like eth_open() instead of open(). While at it, move other file related things there, like #include <io.h>, definition of O_BINARY and alike, so it's all in one place. deleted related things from config.h.win32 As of these massive changes, I'm almost certain that this will break the Unix build. I'll keep an eye on the buildbot so hopefully everything is working again soon. svn path=/trunk/; revision=16403
2005-10-07minor fix: fix the sequence while finishing a live capture, so the statusbar ↵Ulf Lamping1-4/+10
information about the file size is correct svn path=/trunk/; revision=16148
2005-09-20add two new callbacks:Ulf Lamping1-0/+3
cf_cb_file_closing (called before closing a capture file) cf_cb_file_closed will be called afterwards, but both only if a file is really closed as cf_close is called more often ... If we are closing large capture files (~20MB), the screen looks ugly while the file is closed. Change this so the screen will immediately go back to initial state and a dialog (without buttons) is shown that the file is currently closed. As the operation which takes most of the time to close the file is a single eth_clist_clear call, we can't use a progress bar here. cf_cb_live_capture_stopping: called when the user wants to stop the capture (toolbar or menu clicked). At least on Win32, the time between this and the actual stop completed can be noticeable (1-2 seconds), so the user doesn't know if the button press did anything at all. Do something similar as above, show a dialog box without buttons to inform that the close is in progress. svn path=/trunk/; revision=15891

Output more verbose than warning level will be disabled by default (just like before). use the console_log_handler in main.c for win32 AND unix now Currently use the log for the capturing engine (only), as I desperately needed a log output for debugging. svn path=/trunk/; revision=14438

2005-04-12it should now be possible to use "Update packets in real time" even if used ↵Ulf Lamping1-3/+4
with one of the "Multiple files" option. If this is used together with an option where input files changes too fast (e.g. new file every second), capturing will be (hopefully) stopped. I've replaced the former capture pipe message format into a somewhat more general format to remove a lot of confusion. svn path=/trunk/; revision=14054

object code for libethereal.dll isn't generated by the makefile in /trunk.
