# libopenvizsla

An attempt to reimplement [OpenVizsla](http://openvizsla.org/) host software in plain C.

## Getting Started

This section describes how to get started with OpenVizsla and Wireshark.

### Linux

1. Build the project as described below

2. Copy the `ovextcap` executable to Wiresharks `extcap` directory

3. Run Wireshark and start capturing

### Windows

1. Use `Zadig` to install the `libusbK` driver for OpenVizsla

2. Download Windows release

3. Extract and copy all files from `bin` directory to Wiresharks `extcap` directory

4. Run Wireshark and start capturing

## Building

Following components are required to build libopenvizsla:

* [check] - unit testing framework for C;

* [cmake] - cross-platform open-source build system;

* [gperf] - a perfect hash function generator;

* [libftdi] - FTDI USB userspace driver;

* [libzip] - C library for reading, creating, and modifying zip archives;

Then, the library can be compiled as the following:

```sh

mkdir build && cd build

cmake ..

make all test

```

## Development

Any pull-requests to the project are always welcome.
