Hi Ed.

Can you provide me a small sample app exploting the problem?

I've tried to repeat the issue with my machines, without success.

Have a nice day

Gianluca -

I look at lpAdapter in the debugger, it is not NULL for the WAN adapter.

Thanks.

Hi Ed.

How can you be sure that lpAdapter is not NULL?

The error message you sent seems an access to a null pointer....

I've tried to replicate this issue on my machine, and a
similar problem occurs if lpAdapter is NULL.

Have a nice day
GV

Dear winpcap team -

On Win32 (I'm running Win XP Pro with the latest MS service
packs applied), I've noted that your latest v3.1beta4 release
of winpcap will crash if I execute the following sequence of
packet.dll API calls on a WAN adapter:

    lpAdapter =  PacketOpenAdapter(adapterName);
    PacketCloseAdapter(lpAdapter);

lpAdapter is of course not NULL. After the call to
PacketOpenAdapter, I look at the structure that lpAdapter
points to and lpAdapter->pWanAdapter is non-NULL, indicating
that it is a WAN adapter. adapterName in this case is
"\Device\NPF_GenericNdisWanAdapter".

When the code crashes somewhere in PacketCloseAdapter, the
error message I get in the Microsoft Visual C++ debugger is:

"Unhandled exception at 0x7c918fea in TreckDemo32d18.exe:
0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00000010."

If I try this exact same sequence of calls with a non-WAN
adapter (lpAdapter->pWanAdapter is NULL), it works perfectly fine.

I'm not exactly sure how I'm going to code around this
problem. Right now, what comes to mind is doing a string
search in the adapterName to look for "WanAdapter" and if
found then don't try opening the adapter because of this bug.
That's obviously a hack, I'd prefer if you instead fix this.

Thanks.
