For pcap_dump_fopen, the only trick (that I know of) to make it work is the same one used by pcap_fopen_offline i.e. using a macro and an additional sort-of-hidden function exported by the DLL to overcome the FILE limitation on windows.

If you want pcap_dump_fopen() to work on Windows, you'll have to yell at Microsoft, and get them to make the ABI of the C library invariant between compiler releases, so that, for example, even if a given program is built with one version of Visual C and WinPcap is built with another version, the format of the "FILE" structure is the same in the program and in WinPcap. > Also, would be > nice if you could create a Github repository for the community.

WinPcap is a port of libpcap, so the code in the libpcap source directory isn't maintained independently; there's a GitHub repository for libpcap: https://github.com/mcr/libpcap Confusingly, it has an issue tracker, but there's also a SourceForge issue tracker for it. I'll ask Michael Richardson whether we should move to using the GitHub tracker or disable that tracker and send people to SourceForge. Changes to libpcap won't necessarily immediately show up in a WinPcap release (or even a libpcap release). I need to do some infrastructural work to libpcap to make it easier to maintain WinPcap. _______________________________________________ Winpcap-users mailing list [email protected] https://www.winpcap.org/mailman/listinfo/winpcap-users _______________________________________________ Winpcap-users mailing list [email protected] https://www.winpcap.org/mailman/listinfo/winpcap-users
