Process multiple pcap files at once

2 New Member
Hi all,
I'm writing a program using libpcap, and I have multiple pcap files in a folder that I want to capture.

I currently have

handle = pcap_open_offli ne("/data/traffic/pcap1.pcap", errbuf");

which works fine since pcap_open_offli ne() takes in a filename. However, I want to process multiple pcap files from the directory /data/traffic/ at once. Is there a way to do that?

Thank you.

Regards,
Rayne

Hi all. I noticed that with the original pcap sniffing library it is possible to listen on multiple devices by using "select()" or "poll()" function. These function aren't present in pcapy module. Do you got any suggestion to avoid this problem?

In reading up on raw socket programming under RedHat 9.2, I come across 'typedef struct pcap pcap_t' in pcap.h. Ok, so pcap_t is of type pcap, but I can't find any include file that tells me what pcap is itself. Ideas, anyone? --Tony

Hi, Im using pyflag to parse .pcap files. Pyflag displays the data part of the .pcap file in binary and I was wondering what this means.

Is there a (python) dictionary/documentation somewhere that I can use to...

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
