Back to the original question. Is there a way to check if handle is already free? my problem is that it become free even before it reach to pcap_close. see: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/vala-list/2013-June/msg00022.html thanks Nadav -- הבלוג שלי: http://nadavvin.com _______________________________________________ tcpdump-workers mailing list tcpdump-workers@lists.tcpdump.org https://lists.sandelman.ca/mailman/listinfo/tcpdump-workers
