2001-07-22Note that we should supply a detailed explanation of syntax errors, soGuy Harris1-1/+4
we can say more than just that there was a "Syntax error" in the preferences file. svn path=/trunk/; revision=3772
2001-05-31Support for "-N" flag enabling selected forms of name resolution, fromGuy Harris1-3/+20
Joerg Meyer. Support for saving to the preferences file the settings for all types of name resolution. Do a case-insensitive check for "true" and "false" in Boolean preference settings. svn path=/trunk/; revision=3489
2001-04-15There's no "enable name resolution in captures" preference in Ethereal,Guy Harris1-2/+2
and never was - there's only an Ethereal-wide "enable name resolution" preference. Name it just "name_resolve". Replace all tests of "g_resolving_actif" with tests of "prefs.name_resolv", and replace all code that sets "g_resolving_actif" with code that sets "prefs.name_resolv", so that the setting of "prefs.name_resolv" actually affects whether names are resolved or not. svn path=/trunk/; revision=3300
2001-04-13Added the ethereal capture preferences to the preference file.Jeff Foster1-1/+6
svn path=/trunk/; revision=3298
2001-01-03Add a new "prefs_register_protocol()" routine, which is likeGuy Harris1-1/+6
"prefs_register_module()" except that it takes a protocol index as returned by "proto_register_protocol()" as its first argument, rather than taking two character strings as arguments as its first two arguments, and uses the protocol's abbreviation as the name to use for preferences in the preferences file and the "-o" flag and uses the protocol's short name as the name to use in the tabs in the "Edit->Preferences" window. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2812
2000-11-21Add a "color.h" file that declares a nominally-toolkit-independentGuy Harris1-8/+8
"color_t" structure to store color values (although currently it has all the same fields that a GdkColor has; its currently advantage is that you don't have to include any GTK/GDK stuff to declare it). Add routines in the "gtk" directory to convert between "color_t" and GdkColor values. Define, in "prefs.h", all colors as "color_t" values rather than GdkColor values. "prefs.h" now no longer needs to include <gtk/gtk.h>, so don't include it. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2692
2000-11-18Fix a number of problems that caused compiles to fail ifGuy Harris1-3/+3
PLUGINS_NEED_ADDRESS_TABLE was defined. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2662
2000-09-08Graham Bloice's patch to support inverse video rather than boldfaceGuy Harris1-1/+2
highlighting of the bytes, in the hex dump window, corresponding to a selected field. Also, make "remember_ptree_widget()" static, as it's not used outside "gtk/proto_draw.c". svn path=/trunk/; revision=2399
2000-08-21Add prefs.gui_marked_[fb]g color preferences for theLaurent Deniel1-1/+3
color of marked frames. They are currently only available from preferences file, but I will add the color selection in GUI later. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2327
2000-08-21Instead of each set of built-in preferences having "ok", "save",Guy Harris1-1/+23
"cancel", and "delete" methods, give them: "fetch" - fetch from the notebook tab any values not already stored in "prefs", and store them there, but doesn't apply them; "apply" - apply the settings in "prefs"; "destroy" - clean up any windows created from the tab. As we no longer have "cancel" methods, we don't have per-preference code to revert preference values; instead, we have the common preference dialog box code make a copy of all the current preferences, and, when the "Cancel" button is clicked, free the current preferences and copy the saved preferences to it, and apply the preferences. Add an "Apply" button to the preference dialog box, which applies the current preferences without closing the dialog box. Treat a request to delete the preferences dialog box as equivalent to clicking "Cancel". Have a "remember_ptree_widget()" routine to remember all protocol tree widgets, and use the list of those widgets when we set GUI preferences for the protocol tree widgets, rather than setting the main protocol tree widget and then using the list of packet windows. Move that code out of "main.c" to "proto_draw.c", as it's not used by anything in "main.c", but is used by stuff in "proto_draw.c". Make the font one of the preferences we can set on the fly for protocol tree widgets. Also make it something we can set on the fly for the packet list widget. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2316
2000-08-20Instead of having the normal-weight and bold fonts set separately,Guy Harris1-6/+7
generate the name of the boldface font from the Roman font; if the two fonts don't have the same widths, the display will look weird when a field is selected, and it's a bit of a pain for the user to have to select *two* fonts. On UNIX/X, default to "-*-fixed-medium-r-semicondensed-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-" rather than to "-*-lucidatypewriter-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-iso8859-1" - some Linux distributions appear to lack the Lucida typewriter font. Add a "gui.font_name" preference to the preferences file, specifying the normal-weight font to use. Have it settable from the "GUI" tab in the Preferences dialog box - the "Font..." button, when clicked, pops up a font selection dialog box. If we either can't open the selected font or the boldfaced version of the font, default to "6x13" and "6x13bold" as fallbacks - the former will probably be "fixed", and the latter would be "fixedbold" if X actually created such an alias, but it doesn't so we use "6x13bold" instead. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2304
2000-08-17Add a comment about the use of prefs_register_module() in protocol dissectorsLaurent Deniel1-1/+5
(the name should match the one specified at the proto_register_protocol() call). svn path=/trunk/; revision=2287

2000-08-15Implements the "Properties" menu item which displays the preferences windowLaurent Deniel1-1/+11
at the correct notebook page when a particular protocol (which has registered some preferences) is selected in the tree view. - add set_menus_for_selected_tree_row() in menu.[ch] - add prefs_is_registered_protocol() and prefs_get_title_by_name() in prefs.[ch] svn path=/trunk/; revision=2275
2000-07-09Turn the code of "colorize_packet()" into a static routine that is givenGuy Harris1-2/+5
a word to use in the progress dialog, and a flag indicating whether the display filter is to be reevaluated or not, and: have "colorize_packet()" call that routine with "Colorizing" and FALSE as those arguments; have the filtering code call that routine with "Filtering" and TRUE as those arguments; add an exported routine to call that routine with "Reprocessing" and TRUE as those arguments, to use to re-generate the packet list and to re-filter the packets if a protocol preference has been changed. Keep track of whether preferences are changed from their initial value by a preferences file or a command-line option, or from their previous value by the "Preferences" dialog box; have "prefs_apply_all()" only call the "apply" callback for a module if they have. Call "prefs_apply_all()" after the command-line arguments have been parsed and after "OK" has been clicked in the "Preferences" dialog box, to notify modules of preference changes if they've registered a callback for that. After "OK" has been clicked in the "Preferences" dialog box, if any preferences have changed, call the reprocessing routine, as the summary line for some frames and/or the current display filter's value when applied to some frames may have changed as a result of a preference change. Do the same after "OK" or "Apply" has been clicked in the "Display Options" dialog box (as it controls a protocol preferences item. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2126
2000-07-05Add support for a global "ethereal.conf" preferences file, stored in theGuy Harris1-2/+91
same directory as the "manuf" file ("/etc" or "/usr/local/etc", most likely). Add a mechanism to allow modules (e.g., dissectors) to register preference values, which: can be put into the global or the user's preference file; can be set from the command line, with arguments to the "-o" flag; can be set from tabs in the "Preferences" dialog box. Use that mechanism to register the "Decode IPv4 TOS field as DiffServ field" variable for IP as a preference. Stuff that still needs to be done: documenting the API for registering preferences; documenting the "-o" values in the man page (probably needs a flag similar to "-G", and a Perl script to turn the output into documentation as is done with the list of field); handling error checking for numeric values (range checking, making sure that if the user changes the variable from the GUI they change it to a valid numeric value); using the callbacks to, for example, update the display when preferences are changed (could be expensive); panic if the user specifies a numeric value with a base other than 10, 8, or 16. We may also want to clean up the existing wired-in preferences not to take effect the instant you tweak the widget, and to add an "Apply" button to the "Preferences" dialog. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2117
2000-01-06Printing multiple pages of PostScript wasn't as tricky as I thought; addGuy Harris1-4/+1
support for printing in PostScript to the "Print..." dialog box. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1426
2000-01-03Don't have "write_prefs()" display a dialog box if the attempt to openGuy Harris1-2/+2
the preferences file fails, have it return an error indication and the path of the preferences file, and have its caller display the dialog box. That way you don't have to drag in the dialog box code if you're going to use the preferences code in, say, a "line-mode" Ethereal. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1413
1999-12-30Allow user to modify appearance of lines and expanders in GUI protocolGilbert Ramirez1-1/+3
tree. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1400
1999-12-29Changed the protocol tree widget from a GtkTree to a GtkCTree. The two reasonsGilbert Ramirez1-1/+3
I did this: First, Havoc Pennington, in "GTK+/Gnome Application Development", in Appendix seciton A.3.88, recommends using GtkCTree instead of GtkTree because GtkCtree is faster, and GtkTree has limitation on its total row height: since it must fit inside a GdkWindow, it is limited to 32,768 pixels of height. GtkTree is more flexible with regards to the types of widgets that can be placed in the tree, but since we deal only with text, that doesn't matter, at least for now. Secondly, a GtkTree doesn't allow arrow-key navigation (at least as far as I could tell). It always bothered me that the up and down arrow keys worked in the packet list and in the hex dump, but no in the protocol tree. GtkCTree does allow arrow-key navigation. In fact, GtkCTree is a subclass of GtkCList (the packet list widget), so they behave a lot alike. I went ahead and fixed the selection bar which has been bothering Richard for a long time now. :) In the GUI preferences dialogue, you can now set both the packet list selection bar and the protocol tree selection bar to either "browse" or "select" mode. "browse" mode is what you're used to: the arrow keys move an outline of the selection bar, but do not change the selection. "select" mode does change the selection when the arrow keys are pressed. The default behavior is set to "select", which seems more natural for a first-time user. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1393
1999-12-16Add a new page to the Preferences notebook: a GUI page. The soleGilbert Ramirez1-1/+2
option right now is the placement of the vertical scrollbars in the 3 panes. (it's one decision; you can't have the placement of the vertical scrollbar in the packet list pane different than the placement in the protocol tree pane, for example). I did this because I find it convenient to have the vertical scrollbars on the *left* side of the text. My mouse cursor is usually expanding and collapsing the protocol tree widgets, and once the protocol tree changes size, I usually have to scroll. I'd rather move my mouse cursor just a few pixels over to find the vertical scrollbar. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1351
1999-12-10Move GTK code out of summary.c and into gtk/summary_dlg.cGilbert Ramirez1-1/+5
summary.c now provides a struct of info (see summary.h) Changed the name of the summary dialogue callback (hence the change in menu.c), and added a close button to the dialogue. Moved #include <gtk/gtk.h> out of print.c and into prefs.h where it was needed for GdkColor. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1273
1999-12-02Add stream window color preferences. We don't (yet) use cmaps, so thisGerald Combs1-7/+8
may not work with pseudocolor systems. svn path=/trunk/; revision=1179
1999-09-09More shuffling of GTK-related routines to gtk subdirectory.Gilbert Ramirez1-9/+2
svn path=/trunk/; revision=636
1999-07-23Add a "File/Print" menu item, which prints *all* the packets in theGuy Harris1-1/+3
capture to a file or printer. This should eventually get the ability to print either all the packets or only the packets selected by the display filter, and possibly also the ability to print only packets M through N. Get rid of "cur" member of "capture_file" structure; nobody used it. There's no need to pass a pointer to a "dialog_button" variable to "simple_dialog()" for the error boxes displayed if a file copy or move fails; that dialog box is just a message box and has only an "OK" button. Put the declaration of "prefs" into "prefs.h". svn path=/trunk/; revision=378
1999-06-12Don't pop up the "Can't open preferences file" dialog until *after*Guy Harris1-2/+2
we've shown the top-level window, because we want it to pop up on *top* of the top-level window, rather than being hidden behind it. Put a "strerror()"-based reason *why* the open failed in that dialog. svn path=/trunk/; revision=308
1998-11-17* Added column formatting functionality.Gerald Combs1-10/+10
