39 * Some minor differences between sockets on various platforms.
40 * We include whatever sockets are needed for Internet-protocol
41 * socket access on UN*X and Windows.
44 /* Need windef.h for defines used in winsock2.h under MingW32 */
52 * \brief In Winsock, a socket handle is of type SOCKET; in UN*X, it's
53 * a file descriptor, and therefore a signed integer.
54 * We define PCAP_SOCKET to be a signed integer on UN*X and a
55 * SOCKET on Windows, so that it can be used on both platforms.
57 * We used to use SOCKET rather than PCAP_SOCKET, but that collided
58 * with other software, such as barnyard2, which had their own
59 * definitions of SOCKET, so we changed it to PCAP_SOCKET.
61 * On Windows, this shouldn't break any APIs, as any code using
62 * the two active-mode APIs that return a socket handle would
63 * probably be assigning their return values to a SOCKET, and
64 * as, on Windows, we're defining PCAP_SOCKET as SOCKET, there
65 * would be no type clash.
68 #define PCAP_SOCKET SOCKET
72 * Winsock doesn't have this POSIX type; it's used for the
73 * tv_usec value of struct timeval.

90 * with other software, such as barnyard2, which had their own
91 * definitions of SOCKET, so we changed it to PCAP_SOCKET.
93 * On UN*Xes, this might break code that uses one of the two
94 * active-mode APIs that return a socket handle if those programs
95 * were written to assign the return values of those APIs to a
96 * SOCKET, as we're no longer defining SOCKET. However, as
97 * those APIs are only provided if libpcap is built with remote
98 * capture support - which is not the default - and as they're
99 * somewhat painful to use, there's probably little if any code
100 * that needs to compile for UN*X and that uses them. If there
101 * *is* any such code, it could do
103 * #ifndef PCAP_SOCKET
105 * #define PCAP_SOCKET SOCKET
107 * #defube PCAP_SOCKET int
111 * and use PCAP_SOCKET.
114 #define PCAP_SOCKET int
118 * \brief In Winsock, the error return if socket() fails is INVALID_SOCKET;
120 * We define INVALID_SOCKET to be -1 on UN*X, so that it can be used on

124 #define INVALID_SOCKET -1
