Here is the caller graph for this function:

bool ns3::PcapFile::GetSwapMode ( void )

Get the swap mode of the file.

Pcap files use a magic number that is overloaded to identify both the format of the file itself and the byte ordering of the file. The magic number (and all data) is written into the file according to the native byte ordering of the writing system. If a reading application reads the magic number identically (for example 0xa1b2c3d4) then no byte swapping is required to correctly interpret the file data. If the reading application sees the magic number is byte swapped (for example 0xd4c3b2a1) then it knows that it needs to byteswap appropriate fields in the format.

GetSWapMode returns a value indicating whether or not the fields are being byteswapped. Used primarily for testing the class itself, but may be useful as a flag indicating a difference in endianness of the writing system.

		uint32_t	snapLen = `SNAPLEN_DEFAULT`,
		int32_t	timeZoneCorrection = `ZONE_DEFAULT`,
		bool	swapMode = `false`
	)

Initialize the pcap file associated with this object. This file must have been previously opened with write permissions.

Parameters

dataLinkType	A data link type as defined in the pcap library. If you want to make resulting pcap files visible in existing tools, the data link type must match existing definitions, such as PCAP_ETHERNET, PCAP_PPP, PCAP_80211, etc. If you are storing different kinds of packet data, such as naked TCP headers, you are at liberty to locally define your own data link types. According to the pcap-linktype man page, "well-known" pcap linktypes range from 0 to 177. If you use a large random number for your type, chances are small for a collision.
snapLen	An optional maximum size for packets written to the file. Defaults to 65535. If packets exceed this length they are truncated.
timeZoneCorrection	An integer describing the offset of your local time zone from UTC/GMT. For example, Pacific Standard Time in the US is GMT-8, so one would enter -8 for that correction. Defaults to 0 (UTC).
swapMode	Flag indicating a difference in endianness of the writing system. Defaults to false.

Returns: false if the open succeeds, true otherwise.

Warning: Calling this method on an existing file will result in the loss any existing data.

Here is the call graph for this function:

Here is the caller graph for this function:

void ns3::PcapFile::Open	(	std::string const &	filename,
		std::ios::openmode	mode
	)

Create a new pcap file or open an existing pcap file. Semantics are similar to the stdc++ io stream classes, but differ in that positions in the file are based on packets not characters. For example if the file is opened for reading, the file position indicator (seek position) points to the beginning of the first packet in the file, not zero (which would point to the start of the pcap header).

Since a pcap file is always a binary file, the file type is automatically selected as a binary file (fstream::binary is automatically ored with the mode field).

Parameters

filename	String containing the name of the file.
mode	the access mode for the file.
