Is it possible to read multiple pcap file using a loop inside the main function of tshark.c?
Suppose in tshark.c,
I rename the int main() function to Old_Main(int argc, char* argv[]) and call it in a loop in the newly created int main() function.
Example:
//main function renamed as Old_Main
int
Old_Main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
//the code inside the main function as it was, I make no change.
}
//new main function
//Here I am reading 3 pcap file (packet1.pcap, packet2.pcap, packet3.pcap)
int
main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
int i = 1;
while (i <= 3)
{
argc = 4;
argv[1] = "-Tjson";
argv[2] = "-r";
sprintf(argv[3], "D:\\Windows\\files\\packet%d.pcap", i);
Old_Main(argc, argv);
i++;
}
return exit_status; //I declare exit_status globally so that I can return it here.
}
I am getting the following exception after doing it,
** (tshark:10488) 20:01:33.061563 [Wiretap ERROR] C:\Development\wireshark\wiretap\file_access.c:1273 -- wtap_init_file_type_subtypes(): assertion failed: file_type_subtype_table_arr == ((void *)0)
** (tshark:10488) Aborting on fatal log level exception
Anyone kindly help me to find a way.
Thanks in advance for your help.
