Object
Read is largely deprecated. It was current in PacketFu 0.2.0, but isn't all that useful in 0.3.0 and beyond. Expect it to go away completely by version 1.0. So, the main use of this class is to learn how to do exactly the same things using the PcapFile object.
A wrapper for PcapFile#file_to_array, but only returns the array. Actually using the PcapFile object is going to be more useful.
# File lib/packetfu/pcap.rb, line 533 def file_to_array(args={}) filename = args[:filename] || args[:file] || args[:out] raise ArgumentError, "Need a :filename in string form to read from." if (filename.nil? || filename.class != String) PcapFile.new.file_to_array(args) end
Reads the magic string of a pcap file, and determines if it's :little or :big endian.
# File lib/packetfu/pcap.rb, line 520 def get_byte_order(pcap_file) byte_order = ((pcap_file[0,4] == PcapHeader::MAGIC_LITTLE) ? :little : :big) return byte_order end
set_byte_order is pretty much totally deprecated.
# File lib/packetfu/pcap.rb, line 526 def set_byte_order(byte_order) PacketFu.instance_variable_set(:@byte_order,byte_order) return true end
