Re: Tshark closing unexpectedly due to failure reading from file

Hi John,

Do you know where in the code base I could look for a potential remedy to
this issue? I'm trying to find a place to add a delay to ensure the read
does not come early.

Regards,

Alastair

Why do we have the difference in read/write timing?

Umm, because you just would, unless the reader and writer end take
specific measures to avoid that, which they apparently don't. (Note
that it looks like they *do* take such measures at the *end* of the
capture, just not on the initial open.)
