I ended up writing a
static void
foo_tree_add_timestamp(
proto_tree *tree,
const int hf,
tvbuff_t *tvb,
gint offset);
which extracts the value using tvb_get_ntoh64(), splits it into hours, minutes,
seconds and nanoseconds, writes it to a wmem_packet_scope() buffer using
g_snprintf(), and calls proto_tree_add_string() to populate the FT_STRING,
BASE_NONE element from my header_field_info array. It's only a few more lines
of code than the BASE_CUSTOM formatting function would have been.
My question then becomes one of consistency: should I do this for all my
BASE_CUSTOM cases? Or is there some advantage in using BASE_CUSTOM that I've
missed (beyond saving a couple of lines of code)?
Thanks,
d
