Hi,
I may have found a bug in Ethereal, nothing major, but it does cause a
crash.
Version info:
RedHat Linux 6.0, Intel, kernel version 2.2.5-15
GTK+ version 1.2.1
Ethereal 0.7.9, libpcap 0.4, libz 1.1.3, without SNMP
Bug:
When creating colorize filters, it is possible to cause GTK to crash with
the following error report:
Gtk-CRITICAL **: file gtkwidget.c: line 3445 (gtk_widget_get_style):
assertion 'GTK_IS_WIDGET (widget)' failed.
To reproduce the error:
1. With some traffic captured, select Display->Colorize display
2. Click New for a new filter, give it an filter string (e.g. 'tcp')
3. With the 'Edit color filter' dialogue still displayed, click the 'Edit'
button in Add color to protocols.
4. In the second 'Edit color filter' dialogue, enter a valid filter string
(e.g. 'tcp')
5. OK both dialogues. On OKing the second one, Ethereal exits with the GTK
error.
I guess the problem is allowing two Edit boxes open for the same filter.
Many thanks for a *superb* bit of software!
