Hello,
 
One of my colleagues asked me this question and was wondering if anyone could help me...
 
 
We are using the tshark command to convert the PCAP to text format. However, we would want to know if there is a programmatic API to do the same conversion as it is very slow every time we get a packet to run this system command and perform this conversion.
 
We want to do it from one of the application which is currently capturing the packets using JPCAP and wants to convert it to text for analysis.
 
 
Appreciate your help,
martin
