I tried the rpcstat tap functions on tethereal.
It works & looks Ok.
the tap API looks sufficient and simple too.
Thanks for the feedback and confirmation. I know many people use these
extensions and they work reasonably well.
I misphrased what I meant with the confirmation/verification of the tap
system.
What I really want to be verified is that the actual API itself is
simple and useful itself.
I.e. I consider the tap system working/verified/successful (according to the
criterias I myself set up for it) if someone else, apart from me, preferably
someone with little ethereal develople knowledge/experience can use the API
to create their own extension.
The test I want on the tap system is someone else to develop a simple
extension and find it simple to do so. If someone can do this with the
current API then I, myself, think the tap system works.
