It features a completely new user interface which should provide a smoother, faster user experience.Here's an in-depth video introduction to Wireshark 2.0The libwireshark API has undergone some major changes:The emem framework (including all ep_ and se_ memory allocation routines) has been completely removed in favour of wmem which is now fully mature.The (long-since-broken) Python bindings support has been removed. If you want to write dissectors in something other than C, use Lua.Plugins can now create GUI menu items.Heuristic dissectors can now be globally enabled/disabled so heur_dissector_add() has a few more parameters to make that possibleproto_tree_add_text has been removed.tvb_length() has been removed in favor of tvb_reported_length() and tvb_captured_length().The API for ONC RPC-based dissectors has changed significantly: the procedure dissectors no longer take an offset, void-argument procedures now need to be declared with a function (use dissect_rpc_void()), and rpc_init_prog() now handles procedure registration too (it takes additional arguments to handle this; rpc_init_proc_table() was removed).The following features are new (or have been significantly updated) since version 2.0.0rc3:An RTP player crash has been fixed.Flow graph issues have been fixed.A Follow Stream dialog crash has been fixed.An extcap crash has been fixed.A file merge crash has been fixed.A handle leak crash has been fixed.Several other crashes and usability issues have been fixed.Sursa: http://www.net-security.org/secworld.php?id=19147 Quote
