Hello,

I am currently working on a protocol stack which is not fully standardized and 
still under development.
The Protocol stack is: Ethernet > ProtocolA > ProtocolB,C or D
My Problem is There are multiple Versions of Protocol A and multiple Dissectors 
for Protocol A.
I since my focus is on the following protocols I want to write a Dissector for 
A which works on all Protocol Versions and therefore registers all Dissector 
Tables which get registered by the existing Dissectors for A.
The Problem is, you can't register a dissector Table that is already 
registered. Therefore my dissector will crash wireshark if any other dissector 
for A is present.

Is there a way to avoid double registration but still register the missing 
dissector tables of the Protocol Versions where no dissector is present?

Maybe there is a possibility that some code of my dissector can be executed 
between the register and the register_handout method where i can check which 
dissector tables has been created and which has not.

with kind regards

Andreas Wilkes
