Hi,
I am working on improving and implementing more functions for wpcap.dll on wine
wpcap is the Windows version of pcap, Packet Capture Library for wireshark and other network analyzing software,
I have done some research on it, In wine we cannot use the windows kernel driver, but winpcap actually use it, so
I follow the wine wpcap code and try to add more wrapper to wpcap, Here is the patch I' ve submitted and was add
to wine-staging, https://github.com/wine-compholio/wine-staging/tree/master/patches/wpcap-Several_Fixes
One of the most difficult point is , there aren't many applications using wpcap.dll, I cannot found plenty of them,
According to fracting(Hong Qian) 's suggestions, Dr.com , a Client for many Chinese university students to gain access to cernet
uses wpcap, If wpcap.dll can improved to make it available for Dr.Com , maybe many university
students using Linux can gain access to cernet. I will try to improve wpcap.dll in two different ways:
1. Use wine wpcap.dll , and write wrappers
2. Write packet.dll which is needed by native wpcap.dll, and then use native wpcap.dll
I will write testcase for the new dll packet.dll.
Is there andy sugesstions on this idea? Any suggesstions are appreciated
Thanks
Jianqiu
