The exported function (from change log): > > - Bug fixing: > + Exported pcap_setdirection() >
Is not in the 4.1 documentation as a standard function. Will it be added to it for official support? http://www.winpcap.org/docs/docs_41/html/group__wpcapfunc.html My users are asking for it and I will be adding it into the java wrapper, but can't find it in official documentation.

The code has been > merged into > packet.dll. > > - The developer's pack includes LIB files for both x86 and > x64 (for Visual > Studio). At the moment we don't have the LIB files for > Cygwin under x64. > > - The samples have been ported to Visual Studio 2005, and > they compile for > both x86 and x64 architectures.

The source address was not retrieved properly. > + Added some more logic in the installer to account for errors while > installing the Network Monitor component (NetMon).

When the packet to > filter is split into two buffers, under some circumstances the > engine was not checking the right bytes in the packet. > > > Changelog between WinPcap 4.1 beta and WinPcap 4.1 beta2 > ========================================================= > > - Disabled support for monitor mode (also called TME, Table Management > Extensions) in the driver.

It's included into the > Microsoft Platform SDK. > > - Removed devioctl.h from the WinPcap sources. It's included into the > Microsoft DDK/WDK. > > - Removed ntddpack.h from the WinPcap sources. It's an old header file > from the original DDK Packet sample, and it's not used by WinPcap. > > - Removed several useless files from the WinPcap developer's pack: > + all the TME extension header files > + devioctl.h > + gnuc.h > + ntddndis.h > + ntddpack.h > + pcap-int.h. > > - Bug fixing: > + Fixed a possible buffer overrun on x64 machines with more that 32 > CPUs/cores. > + Fixed an implicit cast problem compiling the driver on x64. > + Fixed a bug in the installer causing a mis-detection of a previous > WinPcap installation. > + Fixed two bugs related to memory deallocation in packet.dll. We > were using free() instead of GlobalFreePtr(), and there was a > missing check as to when to deallocate a chunk of memory. > + Added a missing NULL pointer check in pcap_open(). > + Moved a misplaced #ifdef WIN32 in pcap_open(). > + Fixed a bug in the send routine of the driver that could cause a > crash under low resources conditions. > > > Changelog between WinPcap 4.0.1 and WinPcap 4.1 beta > ===================================================== > > - Added support for the Per Packet Info (PPI) link type. > > - wpcap.dll has been updated to the libpcap 0.9.6 branch from > http://www.tcpdump.org. > > - Bug fixing: > + Fixed a bug in pcap_open_live() by which we were silently ignoring > a failure when switching into promiscuous mode.
