2014-03-26Add various functions for Lua directory handling and path infoHadriel Kaplan1-0/+1
This adds new functions to get plugins path info, find out if a directory exists, make a new one, remove one, etc. It also creates a file environment for user-supplied Lua scripts, to prevent global variable contamination as well as supply the script-specific file name. Some other minor cleanup was done as I found them. A new testsuite was added to test the existing and new directory functions.

2014-03-19Add capture file reader/writer support for Lua so scripts can implement new ↵Michael Mann1-0/+1
capture file formats. This enables a Lua script to implement a brand new capture file format reader/writer, so that for example one could write a script to read from vendor-specific "logs" of packets, and show them as normal packets in wireshark.

2014-02-14Adds support for Lua struct library so one can pack/unpack binary structuresHadriel Kaplan1-0/+1
This is based on Roberto Ierusalimschy's struct library, along with additional options based on Flemming Madsen's patch to the lua-users mailing list, and some changes I made to support 64-bit integer packing/unpacking. Details are in the top comments for wslua_struct.c. This also includes a test script.

2014-02-04Adds support for Lua Int64 and UInt64 operators, functions, and generalHadriel Kaplan1-0/+1
usefulness, working around bug #9162 until Lua 5.3 is released. The existing Int64 and UInt64 classes provide virtually no usefullness, other than for creating a string of their value. While one could then write Lua code to convert the string to Lua numbers and such, ultimately Lua has no native 64-bit integer support, making such a task difficult to handle in Lua. This change adds a host of functions and operators to the existing Int64 (gint64) and UInt64 (guint64) classes, to enable true 64-bit integer support on par with native Lua numbers. A test script is also provided, which tests the functions/operators.

2008-01-14This patch adds support for configuration profiles, which can be used toStig Bjørlykke1-0/+1
configure and use more than one set of preferences and configuration files. This can be found in the "Configuration Profiles..." menu item from the Edit menu, or by pressing Shift-Ctrl-A. It's also possible to start wireshark and tshark with a named profile by using the "-C ProfileName" option. A new status pane in the main window will show the current profile. The configuration files currently stored in the Profiles are: - Preferences - Capture Filters - Display Filters - Coloring Rules - Disabled Protocols - User Accessible Tables The recent data are by design not added to the profile. Planned future enhancements: - make a more convenient function to switch between profiles - add a "clone profile" button to copy an existing profile - make the profiles list active and accept return as OK - save users "Decode as" in the profile - make new, clone and deletion of profiles more secure - make some of the recent values available in the profile This patch also fixes: - setting default status pane sizes - a bug setting status pane for packets when not having main lower pane. svn path=/trunk/; revision=24089
