PCAP_DUMP_FTELL 3PCAP "29 September 2017"
NAME
pcap_dump_ftell, pcap_dump_ftell64 - get the current file offset for a savefile being written
SYNOPSIS
#include <pcap/pcap.h>long pcap_dump_ftell(pcap_dumper_t *p); int64_t pcap_dump_ftell64(pcap_dumper_t *p);
DESCRIPTION
pcap_dump_ftell() returns the current file position for the ``savefile'', representing the
number of bytes written by
pcap_dump_open() and
pcap_dump() . -1 is returned on error.
If the current file position does not fit in a
long , it will be truncated; this can happen on 32-bit UNIX-like systems with
large file support and on Windows.
pcap_dump_ftell64() returns the current file position in a
int64_t , so if file offsets that don't fit in a
long but that fit in a
int64_t are supported, this will return the file offset without truncation.
-1 is returned on error.
