-------------------------------------
Summary: Make the testsuite detect if LibPCAP or WinPcap is
installed
Key: PLC4X-150
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PLC4X-150
Project: Apache PLC4X
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: Testing
Affects Versions: 0.5.0
Reporter: Christofer Dutz
Assignee: Christofer Dutz
Fix For: 0.6.0
Right now the testsuite expects some libpcap or winpcap to be installed. The
tests will fail if this is not the case. However these libs are only required
for passive mode drivers or sub TCP/UDP drivers. As having libpcap or winpcap
installed is theoretically a legal problem in some countries, we shouldn't
force people to install it.
By creating some auto-detectors for enabling the pcap tests only if the lib is
available, this would simplify things.
Also on windows it seems to be problematic to connect to use the loopback
device. So it would also be good to detect the version of libpcap and to
disable individual tests based on this.
