[Iftop-users] [PATCH] Cleanup pcap

[Brian Russell]

Hi,

I'm using iftop with my own libpcap extension which has a 0mq socket
underneath. To exit gracefully, I need to go through pcap_close to
clean up, hence the below patch.

Thanks,

Brian


On exit, call pcap_close() so that any resources used internally
by libpcap can be cleaned up.
