PCAP_IS_SWAPPED(3)         Library Functions Manual         PCAP_IS_SWAPPED(3)



NAME
       pcap_is_swapped - find out whether a savefile has the native byte order

SYNOPSIS
       #include <pcap/pcap.h>

       int pcap_is_swapped(pcap_t *p);

DESCRIPTION
       pcap_is_swapped() returns true (1) if p refers to a ``savefile'' that
       uses a different byte order than the current system.  For a live
       capture, it always returns false (0).

       It must not be called on a pcap descriptor created by pcap_create(3)
       that has not yet been activated by pcap_activate(3).

RETURN VALUE
       pcap_is_swapped() returns true (1) or false (0) on success and
       PCAP_ERROR_NOT_ACTIVATED if called on a capture handle that has been
       created but not activated.
