- Debian packages (for i386 only)
News
- Again, this is a small release. Its primary purpose is to update the code so it compiles with the latest version of WiPal (see wipal.lip6.fr). Most changes are not visible to the end user.
- Fix a few bugs related to Qt.

- This is a small release. Its primary purpose is to update the code so it compiles with the latest version of WiPal (see wipal.lip6.fr). Most changes are not visible to the end user.
- Provide a
debian/
subdirectory with proper files so one can build Debian packages out of a WScout tarball. - Fix a few bugs. Especially, a segmentation fault when closing a window’s last tab, and some copy/paste issues.
- PHY header timestamps are now selectable. Thus it is easier to copy/paste them.

News
- WScout now understands basic LLC frames, and provides minimal support for IP.
- You may save selected packets into a separate PCAP file using the menu: File, Write selected packets…
- WScout now understands AVS headers.

News
- WScout now understand IEEE 802.11 beacon and probe response frame bodies.
- WScout now has a “Find” dialog that enables searching for specific bytes into traces.
- WScout has a dock window to display packets’ content as
hexadecimal and ASCII values. Double click on a packet and it
appears. You might hide/show the dock using
Ctrl+H
or using the menu: View, Hexadecimal dump. Click on a packet to update the dock window.Copying from this window fills the clipboard with data suitable for the “Find” dialog.
- Packets’ tooltips show their hexadecimal and ASCII content.
- WScout has clearer menus.

News
- WScout now handles the previously missing 802.11e frame types.
- WScout now displays correctly Prism headers from traces with
swapped integer representation.
Some traces have inconsistencies so it is sometimes needed to manually override endianness settings. This is now possible using the “swap endianness” check box inside the tool bar.

News
- Middle clicking when the window system’s clipboard has numerical
content now go to the corresponding frame (e.g. Copying “42” into
the clipboard then middle clicking inside WScout goes to packet
#42).
As a side effect, only left clicks select packets (middle clicks d to select packets before).
- Duplicating windows does not re-build file indexes anymore. This allows significant performance improvements on window duplication.
- Bugfix: opening an empty trace does not result in a failed assertion.
- The default filtering command becomes
sh -c "tshark -q -i- < '%1' -w '%2' -R '%3'"
So tshark will not complain when asked to filter big (> 2GiB) files. But of course, this implies your system must provide `sh’. Although no big deal with UNIX systems (GNU/Linux, BSD, Mac OS X) I do not know what this will give with MS Windows…
- The filter dialog is no more a modal window.

Prerequisites
WScout needs:- A standard compliant C++ compiler. WScout’s developers use GCC.
- GNU make.
Or any other
make
that supports pattern rules using ‘%’. - The Boost C++ libraries.
More specifically:
- date_time,
- foreach,
- format,
- conversion/lexical_cast,
- optional,
- smart_ptr,
- tokenizer.
- Trolltech’s Qt library, at least version
4.3.
You will also need some tools provided with this library: the Meta-Object Compiler (
moc
) and the Resource Compiler (rcc
). On some systems (e.g. Debian GNU/Linux) they are provided in separate packages.
