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
2003-06-22Ringbuffer rework.Laurent Deniel1-3/+5
Almost completely rewritten in order to: - be able to use a unlimited number of ringbuffer files 0 specified with -b argument or in the GUI, means that the number of file is unlimited. else the maximum number of ring buffer files is arbitrarily set to 1024. - close the current file and open (truncating it) the next file at switch - set the final file name once open (or reopen) - avoid the deletion of files that could not be truncated (can't arise now) and do not erase empty files The idea behind that is to remove the limitation of the maximum # of ringbuffer files being less than the maximum # of open fd per process and to be able to reduce the amount of virtual memory usage (having only one file open at most) or the amount of file system usage (by truncating the files at switch and not the capture stop, and by closing them which makes possible their move or deletion after a switch). svn path=/trunk/; revision=7912

files to get that big. From Thomas Wittwer and Matthias Nyffenegger: Support for "ring buffer mode", wherein there's a ring buffer of N capture files; as each capture file reaches its maximum size (the ring buffer works only with a maximum capture file size specified), Ethereal rolls over to the next capture file in the ring buffer, replacing whatever packets might be in it with new packets. svn path=/trunk/; revision=4324
