Posting this for posterity May 5, 2010

If you are attempting to use any of the Ruby examples for the Unsniff api integration, you will find that things just plain do NOT work with the current 1.8 software offered at present.

In order to use the powerful feature for seeing congestion windows, and other stream analysis graphs please do the following until unleashnetworks has a better answer.

Download and install the 1.8.6 RUBY for Windows installer

Do a gem install fxruby from within the Ruby cmd shell

Download and install the 1.0.x version of Unsniff which can be found on warezseeker of all places but it's the demo version so it's okay.

Install it to C:\Unsniff

Run it and get a capture

Go to your Windows Roaming profile in AppData on Win7 and DELETE the unleashnetworks folder. This old version will not relaunch if this folder is still present after running.

Download the .rb files you need including UnleashCharts.rb

Modify them with

require 'rubygems'
require 'win32ole'
gem 'fxruby'
require 'fox16'
include Fox
require 'UnleashCharts'
include UnleashCharts

In some cases you may have to change OpenForRead to just Open as well but I have not had to with Ruby 1.8.6 on Windows 7

Run the Ruby script and enjoy.

UnleashNetworks are you planning to include this API support in the 1.8 release? Or even the 2.0 release that's mentioned on the website but not available for download?
