Re: Programming against WireShark pcap processing engine

[Abhik Sarkar <sarkar.abhik () gmail com>]

How about exporting the captures to PDML format and then parsing the output
XML in Java? I know it is CPU intensive and the PDML files could become
quite large, but each layer (SMIL/images etc) would appear as separate
entities and by doing some searching you might be able to extract what you
want.

You could first use Wireshark to export to PDML file just to see the format
and understand if it is worth it. Then you can call tshark later to do the
conversion for you automatically.

HTH,
