outstanding for later:
Net::Pcap::FindDevice:
- Spin off as a separate distribution
Sniffer::HTTP
- implement multiple outstanding requests/responses for one connection
- find out why it doesn't listen on just port 80
v0.18 (20081109):
- Bail out of testing if no device is found by Net::Pcap
. Only test changes, no upgrade necessary.
v0.17 (20070113):
- James Mastros suggested skipping more tests if not
running as root on non-Win32 platforms. The tests now
output a warning if you are not on Win32 and $> is nonzero.
The tests will still be run but likely you need to execute
them using
sudo make test
to get results unobstructed by permissions. This
affects
t/01-find-device.t
t/05-dump-to-file.t
v0.16 (20060918):
- Fixed a typo in the synopsis of HTTP::Sniffer
- POD fixes
- "Transfer-Encoding: chunked" is now case insensitive, thanks to
Andre Nurwono
- Fix t/05-dump-to-file.t to gracefully fail if the user
cannot sniff due to (likely) permission problems.
v0.15 (20060605):
- Added the missing File::Slurp prerequisite, found by Joshua Ben Jore
- No code/functionality changes
v0.14 (20060426):
- Fixed a bug where too much data was parsed, thanks to Karl Pietri
for the report and capture file
v0.13 (200602xx):
- added missing dependency on Exporter::Lite (reported by J. Jore)
- added prerequisite of libpcap of at least 0.8
- fixed stupid error that never let you specify an interface
- disabled the 'any' device as it returns frames in a format
that is different from Ethernet frames (and the libpcap
documentation is opaque to me in that regard)
v0.12 (20051112):
- live-http-headers.pl now also outputs the status message
of the response.
- dropped support for v0.04 of Net::Pcap, as there is a
PPM for Net::Pcap v0.09 on uwinnipeg now:
Perl 5.6: http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppmpackages
Perl 5.8: http://theoryx5.uwinnipeg.ca/ppms
v0.11 (20051107):
- Refactored code out into Net::Pcap::FindDevice which
will soon begin a life of its own in a separate distribution
(thanks to Bart Lateur and James Mastros)
- You can specify a device by IP and not just by name or description.
(suggested by Bart Lateur)
- The live-capture test t/05 now has an alarm() to kill
itself if it takes over 60 seconds.
v0.10 (20051106):
- Staleness calbacks didn't work at all. Fixed now.
v0.09 (20051106):
- added timeout to Sniffer::HTTP
- added stale connection detection to Sniffer::HTTP
- added last_activity to Sniffer::Connection
- added timestamp handling from Net::Pcap so even
captures play back with the correct timestamps
- add "Tee to file" capability to ->run() under the
option name "capture_file"
v0.08 (20051104):
- Make magic less OS dependent:
* qr// checks against keys and values, regardless of OS
- guard against ->run(qr//), ->run(undef), ->run("") - these are
handled gracefully
- Make request absolute from Host: header
- Reading from libpcap capture files works, even with filters
- Add (example of) reading from an ethereal capture (see t/03*)
- Fixed partially borked handling of Transfer-Encoding: chunked
- Find and remember port number from TCP packets
and put it in the request (faked via Host: header)
v0.07 (20051103)
- Added Pcap example filters
- added much more magic to select a suitable interface
to listen on. See find_device().
v0.06 (200510xx)
- Fixed crash if Sniffer::HTTP object is created without a log()
callback.
- The Pcap filter parameter was not used at all...
v0.05 (200510xx)
- Added much documentation and clarifications thanks to (in no order)
theorbtwo, blokhead, Bart Lateur,
- Added live-http-headers.pl example script
- Added methods to handle Ethernet and IP packets
- Renamed handle_packet to handle_tcp_packet
- handle_tcp_packet now accepts both, a raw TCP frame
or a NetPacket::TCP hash
- The demo script live-http-headers.pl has better/saner defaults
- The test script dump-raw.pl has better/saner defaults
- added simplicistic ->run method that tries to use sane defaults
- Net::Pcap is now a prerequisite
v0.04 (200510xx)
- Fixed the out-of-order TCP problem for now
- added some first semblance of a test suite
v0.03 (200510xx)
- some public release
