2000-11-30Rename "proto_reg_handoff_iee380211()"[sic] toGuy Harris1-3/+3
"proto_reg_handoff_wlan()", to match "proto_register_wlan()". Call it "IEEE 802.11 wireless LAN", not "Wireless ethernet" - that makes it clearer what type of wireless LAN it is (which *isn't* Ethernet at the MAC layer, although I suspect many of the drivers make it look like Ethernet to the rest of the system). svn path=/trunk/; revision=2717
2000-11-29Wrap the dissect_fddi() call (with a 4th argument) withGilbert Ramirez1-1/+7
dissect_fddi_not_bitswapped() and dissect_fddi_bitswapped(), both of which use the standard 3-argument tvbuffified-dissector argument list. Add a dissector table called "wtap_encap" which is used to call dissectors from dissect_frame(). The switch() statement from this top-level dissector is removed. The link-layer dissectors register themselves with the "wtap_encap" dissector table. The dissectors are now static where possible. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2708
2000-11-19For each column, have both a buffer into which strings for that columnGuy Harris1-2/+2
can be put, and a pointer to the string for the column, which might or might not point to that buffer. Add a routine "col_set_str()", which sets the string for the column to the string passed to it as an argument; it should only be handed a static string (a string constant would be ideal). It doesn't do any copying, so it's faster than "col_add_str()". Make the routines that append to columns check whether the pointer to the string for the column points to the buffer for the column and, if not, copy the string for the column to the buffer for the column so that you can append to it (so you can use "col_set_str()" and then use "col_append_str()" or "col_append_fstr()"). Convert a bunch of "col_add_str()" calls that take a string constant as an argument to "col_set_str()" calls. Convert some "col_add_fstr()" calls that take a string constant as the only argument - i.e., the format string doesn't have any "%" slots into which to put strings for subsequent arguments to "col_set_str()" calls (those calls are just like "col_add_str()" calls). Replace an END_OF_FRAME reference in a tvbuffified dissector with a "tvb_length(tvb)" call. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2670
2000-11-15Move the table of bit-swapped byte values to "epan/bitswap.c", andGuy Harris1-46/+32
declare it, and define a "BIT_SWAP" macro that uses it, in "epan/bitswap.h". Use that macro to bit-swap bytes in the IEEE 802.11 dissector, rather than the macro that was used (said macro used GCCisms and didn't compile on Windows). Make an "init_plugin()" routine to enable a plugin and call its init routine, and call it from "check_plugin_status()" and "plugins_enable_cb()", rather than having very similar code in two places; "patable" is now part of libethereal, and, at least on Windows, attempts to refer to it from "libui" failed. Make "patable" static to "epan/plugins.c". (This may still not work, as now "libui" is calling a routine in "libethereal"; if that fails, perhaps it's time to get rid of the "enable/disable plugins" stuff completely, as new-style plugins, at least, register themselves as protocols and should be controllable from the "Edit->Protocols" window just as built-in dissectors are.) svn path=/trunk/; revision=2649
2000-11-15IEEE 802.11 support, from Johan Jorgensen of Axis Communications AB.Guy Harris1-0/+1753
Add in stuff for a bunch of libpcap formats either in libpcap 0.5.2 or in the current CVS version; we don't implement all of them in Ethereal/Wiretap (those are "#if 0"ed out), but we do implement the IEEE 802.11 stuff (which isn't yet in libpcap or tcpdump, but the CVS version of libpcap *does* reserve 105 as the encapsulation type number for 802.11). svn path=/trunk/; revision=2646
