Re: real time capture with a different application

Hi,

@Steve Karg

Thanks for your response. What I have done is very similar to yours, but Im
using 802.15.4 header.
My application continuously streams packets received into a file while a
"tail -f" command is used to
pump the new contents from the file into a pipe over which tshark/wireshark
listens on.


Tshark displayed the packets correctly in real time, but wireshark throws
packet format error..
Since Tshark is correctly dissecting the packet im pretty sure the packet
format im writing to is correct.
I came across this post about a bug in wireshark related to this,
http://wiki.wireshark.org/CaptureSetup/Pipes (search for "bug")

Could some one tell me if wireshark still has the issue? If so could it be
that Im also having the same thing??

Thanks
