Hi,
Thank you, I will do it. I will also think about better solution. For example, 
I can write the number of fields in tpncp.dat file and perform the memory 
allocation only once instead of using realloc.

Thank you,
Valery.

I have already made some changes in memory allocation. Please update your 
source.
If it is possible to call proto_register_field_array() only once, please try it.

It is not critical for 0.99.7.

Thanks,
  Tomas

Předmět: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Dynamically allocated field array

Hi,
I agree it looks somewhat awkward. The TPNCP is constantly changing, so the 
fields are allocated dynamically by reading the tpncp.dat file at application 
startup. I replaced all the memory management functions with glib's analogs 
before submitting the patch, but I missed these two somehow, sorry. This code 
was written a long time ago and, as far as I remember, I had some problems 
passing dynamically allocated array to proto_register_field_array function, so 
I registered the fields one-by-one. Do you see the better solution? I will be 
glad to implement it. Meanwhile I will replace realloc and memcpy with glib's 
analogs. Is it critical for 0.99.7 release?

Thank you,
Valery.

Hi,

Yeah, and I though we're using glib functions for memory management. All
this realloc and memcpy look ugly.

Thanx,
Jaap
