| 25 | .SH SYNOPSIS |

| 36 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
| 37 | If |
| 38 | .I p |
| 39 | refers to a ``savefile'', |
| 40 | .B pcap_major_version() |
| 41 | returns the major number of the file format of the ``savefile'' and |
| 42 | .B pcap_minor_version() |
| 43 | returns the minor number of the file format of the ``savefile''. The |
| 44 | version number is stored in the ``savefile''; note that the meaning of |
| 45 | its values depends on the type of ``savefile'' (for example, pcap or |
| 46 | pcap-NG). |
| 47 | .PP |
| 48 | If |
| 49 | .I p |
| 50 | refers to a live capture, the values returned by |
| 51 | .B pcap_major_version() |
| 52 | and |
| 53 | .B pcap_minor_version() |
| 54 | are not meaningful. |
