Summary: Wireless Toolbar not enabled (using AirPcap) if
PCAP_REMOTE=1
Product: Wireshark
Version: SVN
Platform: PC
OS/Version: Windows Vista
Status: NEW
Severity: Normal
Priority: Low
Component: Wireshark
AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: wmeier@xxxxxxxxxxx
Build Information:
(Built on Windows from recent SVN which has PCAP_REMOTE=1)
--
It appears that if Windows Wireshark is built with PCAP_REMOTE=1 then capture
device names are of form rpcap://....
This messes up the airpcap code.
I hacked get_airpcap_if_from_name() in airpcap_loader.c to ignore a leading
rpcap:// in device names to seemingly get things working again with respect to
the Wireless Toolbar.
Not being familiar with airpcap code and with the PCAP_REMOTE stuff, I don't
know the correct fix.
---------
On a related note: while looking at airpcap_dlg.c I noticed two places where
the code seems incorrect:
1. In on_advanced_ok_bt_clicked()
if (
get_airpcap_if_from_name(airpcap_if_list,airpcap_if_active->description) !=
NULL)
I think "->description" should be "->name".
2. Ditto for on_key_management_ok_bt_clicked()
