If I have HTTP trace of libpcap format, I found wireshark can perfectly reassemble the HTTP response data and parse its content(e.g. HTML) in clear text. Can some one suggest me which src file(s) or part of functions achieve this parsing?
The HTTP dissector handles this - it's in epan/dissectors/packet-http.c.
From there you'll see it pass off to functions from other files such as
req_resp_hdrs_do_reassembly() in epan/req_resp_hdrs.c. See also doc/README.developer, section 2.7 "Reassembly/desegmentation for protocols running atop TCP" for more details on how Wireshark's reassembly works. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
