Hi Eddie,

I'm almost a beginner so maybe I'm wrong, but here is what I suppose:
udp.proto doesn't exists; if you want to dissect all frames that contain udp 
protocol, you should use:
dissector_add("ip.proto", 0x11, red_handle)
but in this case you lose the UDP dissection (and your dissection will be 
eth:ip:red) and maybe create conflict (I think it can works if you disable the 
UDP protocol in WS).
The parameter you give in "dissector_add" should be an expression associated 
with a hf_field in the lower dissector (in your case, UDP), so all the filter 
expressions you can find in the WS filter toolbar should work.

So in your case, you should use:
dissector_add("udp.length", your_length, red_handle)
where your_length is the length of your protocol (i.e. the UDP payload) + the 8 
bytes of UDP header.

use also tcp.pdu.size or tcp.len (I don't know the difference and if length 
include header because I don't use TCP protocol; check in packet-tcp.c how they 
are defined)

Hoping my help will be useful,

Yvan

Objet : [Wireshark-dev] dissector_add(tcp.proto... / where to find parameter 
for dissector_add()

Hello,

I'm writing a dissector and there is a Problem:

I want to dissect all TCP and UDP-Protocols (actually I only want to dissect 
Protocols with a special data length, but tvb_length(tvb) doesn't work before 
initializing.)
So I tryed dissector_add("udp.proto", 0x11, red_handle) to dissect all packages 
and later I want look for the data-length. But when I start wireshark an error 
message appears:

Runtime Error!

Program: C:\wireshark\wireshark-gtk2\wireshark.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.


I don't know if "udp.proto" is the right parameter. Is ther a list with 
parameters for dissector_add()?

Or is there another way to dissect only packages with a special data length?

Thank you for the help

Eddie
