Constructor Details

Pcap1_10

protected Pcap1_10(MemorySegment pcapHandle,
 String name,
 PcapHeaderABI abi)

Instantiates a new pcap 1 10.

Parameters:

pcapHandle - the pcap handle

name - the handle name

abi - the abi

Method Details

isSupported

public static boolean isSupported()

Checks if the Pcap subclass at a specific libpcap API version is natively supported. This is a safe method to use anytime on any platform, weather native library is present or not.

For example, Pcap1_0.isSupported() will accurately ascertain if libpcap API version 1.0 level calls are supported by the system runtime. Also a call such as WinPcap.isSupported() will determine if WinPcap related calls, ie. native WinPcap 4.1.3 or less, are supported and by extension if this is a Microsoft Windows platform.

Due to libpcap API versioning, it is safe to assume that if Pcap1_10.isSupported() returns true, that at least libpcap API version 1.0 is installed on this platform, and that all lower version calls such as libpcap 0.8 and 0.9 are available as well. The subclass hierarchy of jNetPcap module reflects the versioning of libpcap and its derivatives and the public releases of the native libraries. For example Npcap class extends WinPcap class because Npcap project took over the support for WinPcap where it left off.

Implementation notes: The check is performed by verifying that certain, subclass specific native symbols were linked with Pcap full which was introduced at a specific libpcap or related API levels.

Returns:

true, if pcap is supported up to this specific version level, otherwise false

openDead

public static Pcap1_10 openDead(PcapDlt linktype,
 int snaplen)
                         throws PcapException

Open a fake pcap_t for compiling filters or opening a capture for output.

openDead(org.jnetpcap.constant.PcapDlt, int) and pcap_open_dead_with_tstamp_precision() are used for creating a pcap_t structure to use when calling the other functions in libpcap. It is typically used when just using libpcap for compiling BPF full; it can also be used if using pcap_dump_open(3PCAP), pcap_dump(3PCAP), and pcap_dump_close(3PCAP) to write a savefile if there is no pcap_t that supplies the packets to be written.

When pcap_open_dead_with_tstamp_precision(), is used to create a pcap_t for use with pcap_dump_open(), precision specifies the time stamp precision for packets; PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_MICRO should be specified if the packets to be written have time stamps in seconds and microseconds, and PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_NANO should be specified if the packets to be written have time stamps in seconds and nanoseconds. Its value does not affect pcap_compile(3PCAP).

Parameters:

linktype - specifies the link-layer type for the pcap handle

snaplen - specifies the snapshot length for the pcap handle

Returns:

A dead pcap handle

Throws:

PcapException - any errors

Since:

libpcap 0.6

openDeadWithTstampPrecision

public static Pcap1_10 openDeadWithTstampPrecision(PcapDlt linktype,
 int snaplen,
 PcapTStampPrecision precision)
                                            throws PcapException

Open a fake pcap_t for compiling filters or opening a capture for output.

Pcap.openDead(PcapDlt, int) and Pcap.openDeadWithTstampPrecision(PcapDlt, int, PcapTStampPrecision) are used for creating a pcap_t structure to use when calling the other functions in libpcap. It is typically used when just using libpcap for compiling BPF full; it can also be used if using pcap_dump_open(3PCAP), pcap_dump(3PCAP), and pcap_dump_close(3PCAP) to write a savefile if there is no pcap_t that supplies the packets to be written.

When pcap_open_dead_with_tstamp_precision(), is used to create a pcap_t for use with pcap_dump_open(), precision specifies the time stamp precision for packets; PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_MICRO should be specified if the packets to be written have time stamps in seconds and microseconds, and PCAP_TSTAMP_PRECISION_NANO should be specified if the packets to be written have time stamps in seconds and nanoseconds. Its value does not affect pcap_compile(3PCAP).

Parameters:

linktype - specifies the link-layer type for the pcap handle

snaplen - specifies the snapshot length for the pcap handle

precision - the timestamp precision requested

Returns:

A dead pcap handle

Throws:

PcapException - any errors

Since:

libpcap 1.5.1

openLive

public static Pcap1_10 openLive(String device,
 int snaplen,
 boolean promisc,
 long timeout,
 TimeUnit unit)
                         throws PcapException

Open a device for capturing.

openLive is used to obtain a packet capture handle to look at packets on the network. device is a string that specifies the network device to open; on Linux systems with 2.2 or later kernels, a device argument of "any" or NULL can be used to capture packets from all interfaces.

Parameters:

device - the device name

snaplen - specifies the snapshot length to be set on the handle

promisc - specifies whether the interface is to be put into promiscuous mode. If promisc is non-zero, promiscuous mode will be set, otherwise it will not be set

timeout - the packet buffer timeout, as a non-negative value, in units

unit - time timeout unit

Returns:

the pcap handle

Throws:

PcapException - any errors

Since:

libpcap 0.4

openOffline

public static Pcap1_10 openOffline(String fname)
                            throws PcapException

Open a saved capture file for reading.

pcap_open_offline() and pcap_open_offline_with_tstamp_precision() are called to open a ``savefile'' for reading.

Parameters:

fname - specifies the name of the file to open. The file can have the pcap file format as described in pcap-savefile(5), which is the file format used by, among other programs, tcpdump(1) and tcpslice(1), or can have the pcapng file format, although not all pcapng files can be read

Returns:

the pcap handle

Throws:

PcapException - any errors

Since:

libpcap 0.4
