[Winpcap-users] Re: error when compiling pcap_loop in MFC

[Gianluca Varenni]

Joe,

you should declare your method as 

void __cdecl foo(....), in order to adapt to the calling convention used by wpcap.dll.

Moreover, I would suggest you to use pcap_next_ex instead of pcap_loop/pcap_dispatch, they are usually much easier to handle when you need to terminate your capture thread (I suppose you are using a separate thread for capturing in your MFC application).

Have a nice day
GV
