Function Documentation

◆ wmem_epan_scope()

WS_DLL_PUBLIC wmem_allocator_t * wmem_epan_scope ( void  )

Fetch the current epan scope.

Allocated memory is freed when wmem_leave_epan_scope() is called, which is normally at program exit.

◆ wmem_file_scope()

WS_DLL_PUBLIC wmem_allocator_t * wmem_file_scope ( void  )

Fetch the current file scope.

Allocated memory is freed when wmem_leave_file_scope() is called, which is normally when a capture file is closed.

◆ wmem_packet_scope()

WS_DLL_PUBLIC wmem_allocator_t * wmem_packet_scope ( void  )

Fetch the current packet scope.

Allocated memory is freed when wmem_leave_packet_scope() is called, which is normally at the end of packet dissection. N.B. Please use pinfo->pool in new code when possible. See https://lists.wireshark.org/archives/wireshark-dev/202107/msg00052.html
