- Added support for retrieving the packet capture buffer from server to client (does not work consistently however - needs investigation)
- getCaptureBuffer() Rpc signature changed
- RPC: Added support in Rpc Channel (client) to queue calls
- RPC: Added support for transferring arbitrary binary data from server to client (used to get packet capture files)
- Rpc header changed - length is now 4 bytes instead of 2; there is no rsvd field any longer
Fixes
- RPC: Fix for the case when a msg is not received all at once over the socket
- StreamConfigDialog: fixed display issue in packet view for combo protocols containing meta fields
- Fixed issue with Stacked Vlan not retaining data for both CVlan and SVlan
- Fixed incorrect payload size issue with increment/decrement frame length modes
Refactoring, Cleanup etc.
- RPC: Minor code and TODOs cleanup
- Server: Minor code and TODOs cleanup
- Server: Removed unused file(s): rxtx.cpp, rxtx.h
- Server: Replaced direct use of ProtocolList with the ProtocolListIterator
- Common: Minor code and TODOs cleanup
- StreamBase::frameLen() now returns the length based on the mode/min/max and the passed in streamIndex
- AbstractProtocol interface changed for methods - protocolFrameSize(), protocolFrameOffset(), protocolFramePayloadSize() : all of them now take streamIndex as an optional param with 0 as the default value
- Protocols implementing the above methods changed accordingly
---------
- all protocols on allocation of a configWidget, also populate it before returning from configWidget()
- VLAN TPID override is now correctly saved and restored from/to its widget (vlan.cpp)
- Payload protocol returns a minimum frame value of 1 byte size (Hack to avoid crash in stream config dialog when sum of all protocol frame sizes is greater than the frame length
- small layout changes in mac widget (mac.ui)
- src/dst ip mask changed from 255.255.255.255 to 255.255.255.0 (ip4.proto)
- src mac changed from u32 to u64 (mac.proto)
- "Combo Protocol" protocol container introduced to define newer protocols as a combination of existing protocols e.g. dot2 = dot3 + llc - THIS IS NOT YET COMPLETE (comboprotocol.h)
Client/StreamConfigDialog
-------------------------
- Advanced Protocol Selection implemented
- Simple Protocol Selection rewritten to work alongside Advanced
- Payload Widget is treated like any other protocol - hence it is not placedinto the dialog specially
- Any protocol selection change (in Simple/Advanced mode) immediately triggers change in the Stream's protocolList
- Protocol Widgets now are arranged in a toolBox on a top level tab of the dialog instead of a nested tabWidget
- Vlan selection (Simple Mode) uses Radio buttons instead of checkboxes
- Double Tagged (SVlan + CVlan) now works via Simple Mode
Common
------
- Change in OstProto
- Individual protocols are now extensions of (new) message 'Protocol' instead of 'Stream'
- Stream now contains a repeated Protocol which also determines the ordered set of currently selected protocols; StreamCore.frame_proto which was doing this earlier has been removed
- Change in AbstractProtocol Interface
- Parent changed to StreamBase
- Corresponding change in constructor and factory func - createInstance()
- new method protocolNumber() - returns unique id for each protocol
- protoDataCopyInto/From() now copies into OstProto::Protocol instead of OstProto::Stream
- Change in all subclasses of AbstractProtocol to match new interface
- For all protocols, configFrom is no longer static, but each protocol has its own configForm
- configForm creation is lazy
- configForm is still a child of the protocol i.e. it will be destroyed alongwith the protocol
- TODO: convert configWidget() to a pure factory function i.e. the protocol does not own the configForm - this requires us to pass the widget into load/storeConfigWidget() methods
- ProtocolCollection class removed alongwith its .h and .cpp
- ProtocolList class redefined to serve the purpose of ProtocolCollection
- New class ProtocolListIterator defined to iterate ProtocolList
- AbstractProtocol methods now use the ProtocolListIterator
- Factory function createProtocol() added to ProtocolManager
- OstProto::StreamCore accessor functions moved from Stream to StreamBase
Server
------
- MyService uses the newly moved accessors to StreamBase for OstProto::StreamCore members
- StreamInfo now uses the protocols to create the packet
Client
------
- StreamConfigDialog now uses ProtocolListIterator
- So does PacketModel
