Title: advice?

When doing the WBXML dissector, I'm using a defined dissector table in WSP (the lower-layer protocol), and then I register the WBXML dissector for specific content types (wsp.content_type.type is used, it is defined as a "port" in regular dissector tables).

 

In packet-wsp.c:

 

void
proto_register_wsp(void)
{

 [ . . . ]

 wsp_dissector_table = register_dissector_table("wsp.content_type.type",
     "WSP content type", FT_UINT8, BASE_HEX);

}

 

In packet-wbxml.c:

 

void
proto_reg_handoff_wbxml(void)
{
 dissector_handle_t wbxml_handle;

 

 wbxml_handle = create_dissector_handle(dissect_wbxml, proto_wbxml);

 

 /* application/vnd.wap.wmlc */
 dissector_add("wsp.content_type.type", 0x14, wbxml_handle);
 
 /* application/vnd.wap.wta-eventc */
 dissector_add("wsp.content_type.type", 0x16, wbxml_handle);

}

Subject: [Ethereal-dev] advice?

Hi

I'm writing a dissector which shares a port with another dissector.

I'm looking for the best way for the two dissectors to co-exist.

The 'new' protocol is on tcp port 80 which obviously shares with HTTP.

Any advice?

Cheers
