       pcap_lib_version - get the version information for libpcap

SYNOPSIS        top

#include <pcap/pcap.h>const char *pcap_lib_version(void);

DESCRIPTION        top

pcap_lib_version() returns a pointer to a string giving       information about the version of the libpcap library being used.       The string begins with the words "libpcap version".  Then follows       the version, which consists of three dot-separated numbers and the       optional "-PRE-GIT" suffix to indicate a development snapshot,       same as in the output ofpcap-config --versionin sufficiently       recent libpcap releases.  After the version often follows       additional text to indicate particular features.  For example:       an old release, on any OSlibpcap version 1.5.3       a newer release on a Linux hostlibpcap version 1.10.4 (with TPACKET_V3)       the same, built with DAG support onlylibpcap version 1.10.4 (DAG-only)       a development snapshot on a FreeBSD hostlibpcap version 1.11.0-PRE-GIT (with zerocopy support)
