Function Documentation

text_import()

int text_import

(

text_import_info_t *const

info

)

Import a text file.

This function imports a text file and writes the SHB and IDB to the wtap_dump_params before opening the wtap dump file. It initializes various parameters for packet processing, including timestamps and direction.

Parameters

info	Pointer to the text import information structure.

Returns

Return status of the import operation.

text_import_pre_open()

int text_import_pre_open	(	wtap_dump_params *const	params,
		int	file_type_subtype,
		const char *const	input_filename,
		const char *const	interface_name
	)

Prepares the wtap_dump_params with necessary headers before opening the wtap dump file.

Write the SHB and IDB to the wtap_dump_params before opening the wtap dump file. While dummy headers can be written automatically, this writes out some extra information including an optional interface name.

NOTE: The caller will be responsible for freeing params->idb_inf after finished with the wtap_dumper to avoid a memory leak. wtap_dump_close does not free it.

Parameters

params	Pointer to the wtap_dump_params structure.
file_type_subtype	The type of the file to be opened.
input_filename	The name of the input file.
interface_name	The name of the interface.

Returns

Return status of the preparation operation.
