Hi,

   target is what *you* want it to be. tvb_memcpy is a convenient way to
copy a part of the tvbuff in a part of the memory *you* control. iow, you
have *allocated* this part of memory and *you* are responsible to *free*
this memory.

   Can I ask you where is this "elsewhere" and what is its purpose? Could
you not simply use the tvbuff as-is instead? Could you explain us the
reasons for which you would like to use tvb_memcpy?


Regards,
Sebastien Tandel
