Hi, would you guys consider changing the return value of the pcap_handler callbacks to typedef int (*pcap_handler)(u_char *, const struct pcap_pkthdr *, const u_char *); so that the callback gets a chance to stop a pcap_loop() or pcap_dispatch() iteration, say when returning 0 as opposed to 1? I've repreatedly found that it'd be nice to remain in control over when to abort the loop. Thanks, Christian. -- ________________________________________________________________________ http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~cpk25 http://www.whoop.org - This is the TCPDUMP workers list.
