Unfortunately, you can't do that; :) From doc/README.developer Don't use structures that overlay packet data, or into which you copy packet data; the C programming language does not guarantee any particular alignment of fields within a structure, and even the extensions that try to guarantee that are compiler-specific and not necessarily supported by all compilers used to build Wireshark. Using bitfields in those structures is even worse; the order of bitfields is not guaranteed. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
