title: Winpcap, DLL and open source
body: <p>I'm "trying" to study the Pcap library. Currently I'am using a Windows machine so I downloaded the Winpcap Dev pack. I would like to know the content of the function pcap_sendpacket. I searched the source files in the Winpcap Dev pack and only found the function in a header file, which doesn't contain the body of the function. I suspect the function is defined in the winpcap.dll file, but I can't find the source file for this DLL.</p>
  
  <p>The question is, if the Winpcap project is opensource why the source code for all the files isn't published by the creators?</p>
  
  <p>I mean, may be I am missing something, don't know, I am a newbie.</p>
  
  <p>By the way, I found the function body in the libpcap library but this library is for linux not windows.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for your help!</p>
