Wireshark · Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] Text2pcap - Timestamps problem on Windows98 (Swedish)

["Martin Regner" <martin.regner@xxxxxxxxx>]

It turned out that I didn't come some many lines down in strptime_internal before execution stopped in that procedure.

==== extract ======

printf("test4");
      /* Any character but `%' must be matched by the same character
  in the iput string.  */
      if (*fmt != '%')
 {
   printf("test4b");
   match_char (*fmt++, *rp++);
   continue;
 }
printf("test5");

==========

I just got the outputs:
test4
test4b

but since the format string was starting with a percentage character I would have assumed that I should get
test4
test5
followed by some other test printouts ...

When I replaced       "if (*fmt != '%')"  with   " if (*fmt != 'J')"  then it worked much better, see example below.

I added a printout to print the value of *fmt and it was not '%' (37) as I had expected, but instead it was 'm' (109)
when I had started text2pcap with "%d/%m%Y %H:%M:%S."
