This is only determined after all the packets have been through a first dissection pass.Then there needs to be a mechanism by which the timeline GUI code can inquire whether every packet includes timing information. The change to allow dissectors to share per-capture data (not "private" data, "private" means you *don't* share it, as per Michael Mann's comment) would be a mechanism to do that.
Or, alternatively, we could, for example, add a "read completed" callback for tap listeners, called when a capture read or re-read is complete, and passed a tap-dependent argument, giving "global" information about the captured data. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
