wireshark + processing
May 2nd, 2008, 7:02pm  
hi.
i am trying to visualize network data with processing. Therefore i need to gather data via sniffing software.

The CarnivorePE and the Carnivore p5 library are supposed to do this job.

Unfortunately, the CarnivorePE software does not work on my winxp-machine, it doesn't gather any data.

So i installed wireshark, a popular open source sniffing software available for mac, windows and linux, and it works pretty good.

are there any chances of getting data from wireshark to processing

i don't know about carnivorePE, but wireshark uses a library called libpcap (winpcap on windows) to gather this information, and you can access their functions using jpcap.

hope this helps

Thanks for the hint.
Are there any examples of using libpcap with processing? That would help a lot...
