start capturing externally |

If you simply need to capture to a file
for later analysis, you could simply invoke tshark or dumpcap with the
appropriate command-line options to start capturing, and either use the
appropriate options to stop capturing after a certain time/amount, or simply
kill the process (I would imagine SIGINTR would work on *nix, not sure
how to semi-cleanly terminate under Win32; TerminateProcess would work,
though pending writes might not flush correctly...)
If you absolutely need to start/stop the GUI Wireshark, you might simply
locate the appropriate hWnd and post messages to it to simulate the necessary
keystrokes/clicks. (This assumes you’re running Windows; if you’re on
*nix of some sort, I presume X11 provides equivalent facilities, though
I have no idea what they are or how to use them.)

like start capturing and stop capturing
to the wireshark.
can anyone please help me out in this as what all are the exported methods
that i can call from my application
to start and stop capturing from there.
Thanks.
