saving capture packets in .PCAP format

hello

I am working on acquiring UDP packet from a sensor, I used packet sniffer example in this link: http://www.ni.com/example/27660/en/

the acquiring process works correctly, now I need to save these packets in .PCAP format, on the other hand if I saved packets in .BIN format (binary file) then what should I do to convert this format into .PCAP

Thanks

Hi! This thread may help you. There is a text2pcap.exe that may help you do it.

Extend the library to allow opening a capture context to a log file instead of a memory session. The principle is pretty trivial as the pcap API provides various functions to open a capture session and the rest remains the same. Of course this requires some C programming knowledge and you need to modify the lvwpcal.cpp file and recompile it into a shared library (DLL) and interface to the new function.

I'm sorry, the answer is no for both of your questions.
