Reply :<br><br>Gianluca , thank, i tried it, i see what you mean . In the capture loop , the UI tends to go dead and unresponsive to clicks and stuff . I think i'll do it the thread way . <br><br><b><i>Gianluca Varenni <gianluca.varenni@cacetech.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Well, pcap_breakloop would work but, as I wrote in the other mail, the UI is <br>not responsive since it's stuck receiving packets in the "onButtonCapture" <br>handler...<br><br>In any case, I usually prefer not to use "pcap_breakloop". This API is there <br>mainly to interrupt a pcap_loop or pcap_dispatch call, if you use <br>pcap_next_ex you don't have the problem of breaking the internal loop of <br>"pcap_loop" or "pcap_dispatch", because you explicitely create the loop <br>surrounding pcap_next_ex.<br><br>Have a nice day<br>GV<br><br><br><br><br>----- Original Message ----- <br>From: "Gubrush
