Hello Wireshark Devs, My name is Evan Kvidera and I am a senior undergraduate student studying Computer Science. I have a decent amount of programming experience, but only a little in C. My employer has asked me to try to add support for piping pcap-ng captures to Wireshark. I have read over the bug report requesting the feature, https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11370.
After reading the mailing list archives here, https://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg33336.html, it looks like this addition will be nontrivial, but doable, and that the changes necessary are all going to be in dumpcap. I have at least a month or two of full-time work I can dedicate to this if necessary, although I am hoping it will not take that long. I have read through the Wireshark Developer's Guide and looked over the style guide for Wireshark. Is there anything else I should know before starting development? I will try to develop this as independently as possible, but I may have a few questions along the way. Thanks, Evan
