2021-09-30ws_getopt: Rename struct and macrosJoão Valverde1-3/+3
This is part of the API and should also be renamed to avoid conflicts.
2021-09-17Use the musl in-tree getopt_long() everywhereJoão Valverde1-59/+36
Besides the obvious limitation of being unavailable on Windows, the standard is vague about getopt() and getopt_long() has many non-portable pitfalls and buggy implementations, that increase the maintainance cost a lot. Also the GNU libc code currently in the tree is not suited for embedding and is unmaintainable. Own maintainership for getopt_long() and use the musl implementation everywhere. This way we don't need to worry if optreset is available, or if the $OPERATING_SYSTEM version behaves in subtly different ways. The API is under the Wireshark namespace to avoid conflicts with system headers. Side-note, the Mingw-w64 9.0 getopt_long() implementation is buggy with opterr and known to crash. In my experience it's a headache to use the embedded getopt implementation if the system provides one.
2021-07-04Move version_info.[ch] to ui/João Valverde1-1/+1
Version info is an aspect of UI implementation so move it to a more appropriate place, such as ui/. This also helps declutter the top-level. A static library is appropriate to encapsulate the dependencies as private and it is better supported by CMake than object libraries. Also version_info.h should not be installed as a public header.

2021-06-14wslog: Add support for domain filteringJoão Valverde1-0/+1
A domain filter can be given in the environment variable 'WS_LOG_DOMAINS' or in a command-line options "--log-domains". The filter is specified as a comma separated case insensitive list, for example: ./tshark --log-domains=main,capture Domain data type switches from an enum to a string. There is no constaint on adding new domains, neither in code or at runtime. The string format is arbitrary, only positive matches will produce output.
2021-06-11Refactor our logging and extend the wslog APIJoão Valverde1-45/+14
Experience has shown that: 1. The current logging methods are not very reliable or practical. A logging bitmask makes little sense as the user-facing interface (who would want debug but not crtical messages for example?); it's computer-friendly and user-unfriendly. More importantly the console log level preference is initialized too late in the startup process to be used for the logging subsystem and that fact raises a number of annoying and hard-to-fix usability issues. 2. Coding around G_MESSAGES_DEBUG to comply with our log level mask and not clobber the user's settings or not create unexpected log misses is unworkable and generally follows the principle of most surprise. The fact that G_MESSAGES_DEBUG="all" can leak to other programs using GLib is also annoying. 3. The non-structured GLib logging API is very opinionated and lacks configurability beyond replacing the log handler. 4. Windows GUI has some special code to attach to a console, but it would be nice to abstract away the rest under a single interface. 5. Using this logger seems to be noticeably faster. Deprecate the console log level preference and extend our API to implement a log handler in wsutil/wslog.h to provide easy-to-use, flexible and dependable logging during all execution phases. Log levels have a hierarchy, from most verbose to least verbose (debug to error). When a given level is set everything above that is also enabled. The log level can be set with an environment variable or a command line option (parsed as soon as possible but still later than the environment). The default log level is "message". Dissector logging is not included because it is not clear what log domain they should use. An explosion to thousands of domains is not desirable and putting everything in a single domain is probably too coarse and noisy. For now I think it makes sense to let them do their own thing using g_log_default_handler() and continue using the G_MESSAGES_DEBUG mechanism with specific domains for each individual dissector. In the future a mechanism may be added to selectively enable these domains at runtime while trying to avoid the problems introduced by G_MESSAGES_DEBUG.
2021-04-28tfshark: fix compilation.Guy Harris1-1/+1
Note: "compilation", not "operation" - after I got it to compile, it crashed when I tried to run it on a JPEG file.
2021-04-13Add a new header defining commonly-used exit codes.Guy Harris1-4/+2
"Commonly-used" meaning "used by more than one source file". Clean up the exit codes, combining some duplicates with different names, and using some instead of raw numbers in some places.
2021-03-15Add more error-reporting routines that call through a function pointer.Guy Harris1-45/+20
Have routines to report capture-file errors, using libwireshark error codes and strings, that call through a pointer, so they can pop up dialogs in GUI apps, print a message to the standard error on command-line apps, and possibly do something different on server programs. Have init_report_message() take a pointer to structure containing those function pointers, rather than the function pointers themselves, as arguments. Make other API changes to make that work.
2021-02-19wiretap: eliminate two WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_ values.Guy Harris1-0/+12
Eliminate WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_ERF and WTAP_FILE_TYPE_SUBTYPE_SYSTEMD_JOURNAL - instead, fetch the values by name, using wtap_name_to_file_type_subtype(). This requires that wtap_init() be called before epan_init(); that's currently the case, but put in comments to indicate why it must continue to be the case.

2020-10-25Revert "Apparently, WS_WIKI_URL() is unworkable not only in C++ but in C."Guy Harris1-1/+1
This reverts commit 5df29254347daab8ab9f530a0b9dfd0b32a40efc. The problem only showed up in tfshark.c, and was caused by tfshark.c using stuff from ui/urls.h but not *including* ui/urls.h.
2020-10-25Include <ui/urls.h>Guy Harris1-0/+1
If you're going to use #defines from ui/urls.h, it reeeeeeeeeally helps if you *include* ui/urls.h.
2020-10-24Apparently, WS_WIKI_URL() is unworkable not only in C++ but in C.Guy Harris1-1/+1
If you use it, GCC 9.3.0 seems to think there's a missing parenthesis somewhere, just as the version of clang++ in my version of Xcode does, even though other versions of GCC don't. I'm clearly missing something obscure about C here; I give up.
2020-10-02Clean up URLs.Guy Harris1-1/+1
Add ui/urls.h to define some URLs on various of our websites. Use the GitLab URL for the wiki. Add a macro to generate wiki URLs. Update wiki URLs in comments etc. Use the #defined URL for the docs page in WelcomePage::on_helpLabel_clicked; that removes the last user of topic_online_url(), so get rid of it and swallow it up into topic_action_url().
2020-07-06Windows: Set our locale to ".UTF-8".Gerald Combs1-1/+8
In each of our executables we were calling "setlocale(LC_ALL, "")" at startup. This told Windows that output was encoded using the current system code page. Unless the code page was 65001 (UTF-8), this was a lie. We write UTF-8 to stdout and stderr, so call "setlocale(LC_ALL, ".UTF-8)" at startup on Windows. This lets the CRT translate our output correctly in more cases. Clarify and expand the OUTPUT section in the tshark man page.

2019-01-02cli_main: remove real_main from stack traces for non-WindowsPeter Wu1-1/+1
Restore the "main" name since that is used everywhere else except for Windows. On Windows, "main" is renamed via a macro to avoid a conflict with "wmain" and to allow it to be called in cli_main.c. For those wondering, GUI applications (such as Qt) have a different entry point, namely WinMain. In Qt5, src/winmain/qtmain_win.cpp defines WinMain, but seems to convert its arguments from Unicode to CP_ACP (ASCII). It might not support UTF-8, but I did not verify this.

2019-01-01Move some command-line-oriented routines from wsutil to ui.Guy Harris1-2/+2
cmdarg_err() is for reporting errors for command-line programs and command-line errors in GUI programs; it's not something for any of the Wireshark libraries to use. The various routines for parsing numerical command-line arguments are not for general use, they're just for use when parsing arguments.

2018-12-27Try to squeeze some bytes out of the frame_data structure.Guy Harris1-1/+1
Make the time stamp precision a 4-bit bitfield, so, when combined with the other bitfields, we have 32 bits. That means we put the flags at the same structure level as the time stamp precision, so they can be combined; that gets rid of an extra "flags." for references to the flags. Put the two pointers next to each other, and after a multiple of 8 bytes worth of other fields, so that there's no padding before or between them. It's still not down to 64 bytes, which is the next lower power of 2, so there's more work to do.

2018-12-13Put the main() and wmain() routines for CLI programs into a separate file.Guy Harris1-22/+2
That means that code is only in one place, rather than having copies of it in each of those programs. CLI programs that, on Windows, should get UTF-8 arguments rather than arguments in the local code page should: include the top-level cli_main.h header; define the main function as real_main(); be built with the top-level cli_main.c file. On UN*X, cli_main.c has a main() program, and just passes the arguments on to real_main(). On Windows, cli_main.c has a wmain() function that converts the UTF-16 arguments it's handed to UTF-8 arguments, using WideCharToMultiByte() so that it doesn't use any functions other than those provided by the system, and then calls real_main() with the argument count and UTF-8 arguments.

2018-10-07Use wsetargv.obj, and wmain() rather than main(), on Windows.Guy Harris1-3/+22
Doing so for command-line programs means that the argument list doesn't ever get converted to the local code page; converting to the local code page can mangle file names that *can't* be converted to the local code page. Furthermore, code that uses setargv.obj rather than wsetargv.obj has issues in some versions of Windows 10; see bug 15151. That means that converting the argument list to UTF-8 is a bit simpler - we don't need to call GetCommandLineW() or CommandLineToArgvW(), we just loop over the UTF-16LE argument strings in argv[]. While we're at it, note in Wireshark's main() why we discard argv on Windows (Qt does the same "convert-to-the-local-code-page" stuff); that means we *do* need to call GetCommandLineW() and CommandLineToArgvW() in main() (i.e., we duplicate what Qt's WinMain() does, but converting to UTF-8 rather than to the local code page).
