I'd like to run some analysis code when the user selects a packet in the packet list. I know nothing about the Wireshark codebase. Is there an event model? Where do I start looking? Can something like this be done in a dissector? Thanks. asked 18 Jan '11, 11:16 joebrucepnnl |
One Answer:
Running some analysis code when the user selects a packet is basically what Wireshark does for a living. That analysis is called dissection, and tries to analyze all bits in the frame. If you want to read up on Wireshark development I suggest going for the Developer's Guide and README.developer. Although not complete they should give you a pretty good start. answered 18 Jan '11, 14:12 Jaap ♦ |
