Hi, I am planning to make an ethereal dissector for bluetooth HCI conversation for BlueZ Bluetooth stack. In order to see this data, we have to load it first in ethereal. I see two ways to do that: 1. Make libpcap hci aware, and let it capture hci data in normal pcap file like tcpdump, then ethereal will be able to sniff live from hci0. 2. Make ethereal read capture files made with hcidump -w. The first one seems better, but the second is easier. What do you think ? P.S. This message is posted on both ethereal and bluez development lists.
The affix,"http://affix.sourceforge.net/", bluetooth stack for linux already has an interface to ethereal, so it might be worth using the same api as affix has with ethereal, thus sharing the amount of development work needed to be done.
