Hi Ray,
Well, the Ethereal capture dialog already has some (basic) stop triggers
(such as "Stop after N packets"). Also, if you want to stop the capture
after some upper layer protocol event then it should probably be done in
Ethereal (in which those upper layer protocol events would be dissected)
instead of libpcap...
You might want to start looking in "gtk/capture_dlg.c" for how the
current stop triggers are implemented.
Regards,
-Jeff

Hi!
I'd like to be able to define a start/stop capture trigger. I'd think
the syntax would be the same as the capture filters. I don't know if
this is an Ethereal enhancement and/or a libpcap enhancement.
