process for a sync mode or fork mode capture.
Have that flag control whether we do things that *only* the parent or
*only* the child should do, rather than basing it solely on the setting
of "sync_mode" or "fork_mode" (or, in the case of stuff done in the
child process either in sync mode or fork mode, rather than basing it on
the setting of those flags at all).
Split "do_capture()" into a "run_capture()" routine that starts a
capture (possibly by forking off and execing a child process, if we're
supposed to do sync mode or fork mode captures), and that assumes the
file to which the capture is to write has already been opened and that
"cf.save_file_fd" is the file descriptor for that file, and a
"do_capture()" routine that creates a temporary file, getting an FD for
it, and calls "run_capture()".
Use "run_capture()", rather than "capture()", for "-k" captures, so that
it'll do the capture in a child process if "-S" or "-F" was specified
("do_capture()" won't do because "-k" captures should write to the file
specified by the "-w" flag, not some random temporary file).
For child process captures, however, just use "capture()" - the child
process shouldn't itself fork off a child if we're in sync or fork mode,
and should just write to the file whose file descriptor was specified by
the "-W" flag on the command line.
All this allows you to do "ethereal -S -w <file> -i <interface> -k" to
start a sync mode capture from the command line.

popped up the top-level window (so that it looks like a capture
started from "Capture/Start");
initialized the colors (so that we don't dump core when reading
in the capture file);
popped up any message box for failure to read the preferences
file.
This means we start the capture in "main()", rather than in the realize
callback for the main window, so get rid of that callback.
If we're a child process that's just capturing to a file for our parent
to read, however, we shouldn't pop up the top-level window, because
that's our parent's job; when running that child, set its "argv[0]" to a
special name, so that
1) it shows up in a "ps" with a special name;
2) we don't have to invent Yet Another Flag to say "you're the
child".
(We may want to use the name to turn on *all* behaviors that the capture
child, and only the capture child, should exhibit.)
If "-w" and "-k" were both specified, attempt to open the file specified
by "-w" and, if that succeeds, set "cf.save_file_fd" to refer to it, so
that "-w" plus "-k" works again, rather than popping up a "The file to
which the capture would be saved ... could not be opened: Bad file
descriptor." message box.

current capture file if it's a temporary file, out of paranoia (so that
we don't get into a state where we have a capture file open but unlinked
- it's probably harmless to be in that state, as the file will remain
around until close, modulo NFS fun, and we may never be in that state
for very long, but I'd rather have it obviously stated in the code).
Remove the close in "capture()", and put one before the other call to
"capture()", in "main_realize_cb()" (is that call necessary, e.g. if you
pass "-r <filename>" *and* "-k", for some perverse reason, as
command-line arguments?).
If "cf.save_file" is non-null, free it before setting it, regardless of
whether it refers to a temporary file name or not.

child will nuke that file before we get to open the capture in
"tail_cap_file()" - assuming we do, because the capture may not start.
If we fail while writing to, or closing, a capture file we've opened for
writing, don't treat that as a capture error, as we may have saved at
least some packets to the capture file (that's the way it worked before
my recent checkins).

and to fork off and run a separate copy of "ethereal" for "-S" and "-F"
captures or just call "capture()" otherwise, out of "gtk/capture_dlg.c"
and into a routine in "capture.c".
If the attempt to create said temporary capture file fails, pop up a
dialog box and don't do the capture.
Have the child capture process send a message upstream after it either
successfully starts the capture and syncs out the header of the capture
file, or fails to start the capture; the message indicates whether it
succeeded or failed, and, if it failed, includes a failure message.
This:
avoids the use of a signal, and thus means we don't have to
worry about whether to capture the signal, or whether to start
or stop capturing depending on whether this particular capture
is in sync mode or not;
lets us pop up the message box for the error in the parent
process if we're in sync mode, rather than doing it in the
child, which didn't work well.
Add a check button to the Capture/Start dialog box, so that we can
control, for each capture, whether it's to be done in sync mode or not.

box interfaces we can't open; this filters out loopback interfaces on
e.g. Solaris (which you can't get at with a DLPI device, so you can't
capture traffic on them), and also means we don't report *any*
interfaces if you don't have permission to open any (which means you
don't have permission to capture packets).
If we don't find any interfaces, pop up a message box saying so.
Free up the interface "ioctl" buffer, and close the socket we were
using, before returning from "get_interface_list()".
If "get_interface_list()" returns a null pointer (meaning it failed),
don't pop up the "capture" dialog box.

"FDDI with the MAC addresses bit-swapped"; whether the MAC addresses are
bit-swapped is a property of the machine on which the capture was taken,
not of the machine on which the capture is being read - right now, none
of the capture file formats we read indicate whether FDDI MAC addresses
are bit-swapped, but this does let us treat non-"libpcap" captures as
being bit-swapped or not bit-swapped independent of the machine on which
they're being read (and of the machine on which they were captured, but
I have the impression they're bit-swapped on most platforms), and allows
us to, if, as, and when we implement packet capture in Wiretap, mark
packets in a capture file written in Wiretap-native format based on the
machine on which they are captured (assuming the rule "Ultrix, Alpha,
and BSD/OS are the only platforms that don't bit-swap", or some other
compile-time rule, gets the right answer, or that some platform has
drivers that can tell us whether the addresses are bit-swapped).
(NOTE: if, for any of the capture file formats used only on one
platform, FDDI MAC addresses aren't bit-swapped, the code to read that
capture file format should be fixed to flag them as not bit-swapped.)
Use the encapsulation type to decide whether to bit-swap addresses in
"dissect_fddi()".

and in different capture files; throw in some heuristics to try to
figure out whether the 4-byte header is:
1) PPP-over-HDLC (some version of ISDN4BSD?);
2) big-endian AF_ value (BSD on big-endian platforms);
3) little-endian AF_ value (BSD on little-endian platforms);
4) two octets of 0 followed by an Ethernet type (Linux, at least
on little-endian platforms, as mutated by "libpcap").
Make a separate Wiretap encapsulation type, WTAP_ENCAP_NULL,
corresponding to DLT_NULL.
Have the PPP code dissect the frame if it's PPP-over-HDLC, and have
"ethertype()" dissect the Ethernet type and the rest of the packet if
it's a Linux-style header; dissect it ourselves only if it's an AF_
value.
Have Wiretap impose a maximum packet size of 65535 bytes, so that it
fails more gracefully when handed a corrupt "libpcap" capture file
(other capture file formats with more than a 16-bit capture length
field, if any, will have that check added later), and put that size in
"wtap.h" and have Ethereal use it as its notion of a maximum packet
size.
Have Ethereal put up a "this file appears to be damaged or corrupt"
message box if Wiretap returns a WTAP_ERR_BAD_RECORD error when opening
or reading a capture file.
Include loopback interfaces in the list of interfaces offered by the
"Capture" dialog box, but put them at the end of the list so that it
doesn't default to a loopback interface unless there are no other
interfaces. Also, don't require that an interface in the list have an
IP address associated with it, and only put one entry in the list for a
given interface (SIOCGIFCONF returns one entry per interface *address*,
not per *interface* - and even if you were to use only IP addresses, an
interface could conceivably have more than one IP address).
Exclusively use Wiretap encapsulation types internally, even when
capturing; don't use DLT_ types.

return 1 on success, -1 if they got an error, and 0 if the file isn't of
the type that file is checking for, and supply an error code if they
return -1; have "wtap_open_offline()" use that error code. Also, have
the per-capture-file-type open routines treat errors accessing the file
as errors, and return -1, rather than just returning 0 so that we try
another file type.
Have the per-capture-file-type read routines "wtap_loop()" calls return
-1 and supply an error code on error (and not, as they did in some
cases, call "g_error()" and abort), and have "wtap_loop()", if the read
routine returned an error, return FALSE (and pass an error-code-pointer
argument onto the read routines, so they fill it in), and return TRUE on
success.
Add some new error codes for them to return.
Now that "wtap_loop()" can return a success/failure indication and an
error code, in "read_cap_file()" put up a message box if we get an error
reading the file, and return the error code.
Handle the additional errors we can get when opening a capture file.
If the attempt to open a capture file succeeds, but the attempt to read
it fails, don't treat that as a complete failure - we may have managed
to read some of the capture file, and we should display what we managed
to read.

can't translate the encapsulation type, it should return an
encapsulation type; we add a new one, WTAP_ENCAP_UNKNOWN. and have it
return that.
Have "capture()" handle "wtap_pcap_encap_to_wtap_encap()" returning that
encapsulation type (if it happens, we need to add a new Wiretap

write them in "libpcap" format, but the mechanism can have other formats
added.
When creating the temporary file for a capture, use "create_tempfile()",
to close a security hole opened by the fact that "tempnam()" creates a
temporary file, but doesn't open it, and we open the file with the name
it gives us - somebody could remove the file and plant a link to some
file, and, if as may well be the case when Ethereal is capturing
packets, it's running as "root", that means we write a capture on top of
that file.... (The aforementioned changes to Wiretap let you open a
capture file for writing given an file descriptor, "fdopen()"-style,
which this change requires.)

want to read the next file with the same filter that you used on the
last file.
In the "File/Open" dialog box, parse the read filter before trying to
open the file, and if the parse fails, leave the dialog box up so the
user still has the filter and file name around and can try to fix the
problem.
Keep the compiled read filter attached to the "capture_file" structure,
so you don't have to reparse it on a "File/Reload".

it's called after "open_cap_file()" has been called, and is always
passed the file name passed to "open_cap_file()", and that file name is

"cf->filename" as the pathname of the file.

The former, which used to be called by "load_cap_file()", now just opens
the file and, if the open succeeds, closes any capture file we
previously had open, reinitializes any protocols that need
reinitialization, and saves information about the new capture file in
the "capture_file" structure to which it was passed a pointer. The
latter reads the file already opened by "read_cap_file()".
For "File/Open", call "open_cap_file()" before dismissing the file
selection box; if it fails, "open_cap_file()" will have popped up a
message box complaining about it - just return, leaving the file
selection box open so the user can, after dismissing the message box,
either try again with a different file name, or dismiss the file
selection box. (Other file selection boxes should be made to work the
same way.) If "open_cap_file()" succeeds, dismiss the file selection
box, and read the capture file in.

the "Open File" dialog box (the "Open File" dialog box equivalent of the
"-R" flag). Have "load_cap_file()" take the filter expression as an
argument, and make the global "rfilter" into a member of a
"capture_file" structure.
When reading a temporary capture file after a live capture, don't apply
any filter.
Move the code that pops up error boxes on file opens when reading a
capture file back to "load_cap_file()"; it also pops up error boxes if
the filter expression can't be parsed.
Don't enable "File/Save" or "File/Save As..." if an attempt to read a
capture file fails - if there was already an open capture file, it was
closed by "load_cap_file()", so we no longer have an open file to save.

Leave the job of enabling and disabling menu items that make sense only
if you have a capture (except for "File/Save" and "File/Save As...", for
now) up to "load_cap_file()", "close_cap_file()", and the like - don't
scatter that stuff throughout the code.
Disable "File/Print Packet" if no packet is selected; enable it only if
a packet is selected.
If there's a selected packet, and a display filter is run:
if the selected packet passed the filter, re-select it;
if the selected packet didn't pass the filter, un-select it.
If we've opened a live "pcap" capture, but can't do the capture because
we can't get the netmask info, or can't parse the capture filter string,
or can't install the filter, close the live capture and the dump and
delete the dump file.
If we failed to open a live "pcap" capture, don't try to read the
capture file - it doesn't exist.

influence came from
http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/mac/HIGuidelines/HIGuidelines-232.html
which has a section on dialog box and alert box messages. However,
we're largely dealing with technoids, not with The Rest Of Us, so I
didn't go as far as one perhaps should.)
Unfortunately, it looks like it's a bit more work to arrange that, if
you give a bad file name to the "-r" flag, the dialog box pop up only
*after* the main window pops up - it has the annoying habit of popping
up *before* the main window pops up, and sometimes getting *obscured* by
it, when I do that. The removal of the dialog box stuff from
"load_cap_file()" was intended to facilitate that work. (It might also
be nice if, when an open from the "File/Open" menu item fails, we keep
the file selection box open, and give the user a chance to correct
typos, choose another file name, etc.)
