You might be able to do this via the GFile routines in GIO (e.g. g_file_new_for_uri + g_file_read_async). Unfortunately the documentation seems to go out of its way to avoid specific use cases, e.g. reading a file over HTTP: http://developer.gnome.org/gio/stable/GFile.html ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
