I'm developing a product using Macromedia Flash Remoting, which encapsulates its own AMF data in HTTP packets (MIME type application/x-amf). Wireshark is great for intercepting the traffic, but once I'm looking at the HTTP transaction I can't see anything more than hex data.
I'm a decent C programmer, but have no experience developing for Wireshark, and probably could only contribute in a very well-circumscribed area of the product. Given all that, I'd like to write a packet dissector for Flash Remoting AMF data presented within HTTP packets. I think that means I need to build a new media type dissector. So, I have some questions: - Is this something the average programmer could do without thoroughly learning the Wireshark code base? - Would I be writing a media type dissector plugin, living alongside such modules as the GIF, JPEG and line based text dissectors? - Where in the code tree would I find a source file that does the same task, albeit for a different media type? ... feel free to tell me RTFM, hopefully accompanied by URLs for the M...
