Hi
I actually did not know about wsgd.free.fr. For what I want to achieve, this would be completely sufficient. But It would need a UI, because the definition of the wsgd and fdesc files would be too much for the nomal user. I will work on that instead, and see where I can go from there. Just one question though, why is this plugin not part of wireshark? kind regards, Roland On Mon, Oct 14, 2013 at 8:40 PM, Guy Harris <g...@alum.mit.edu> wrote: > > On Oct 13, 2013, at 1:17 AM, Roland Knall <rkn...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> For such a dissection, we need to tell a dissector, how to dissect a >> specific payload. >> >> I would like to implement a new field type (FT_PIMAGE) and allow the >> user using a dialog, to specify a filter and a mapping to dissect the >> field. > > Would the payload consist either of one big FT_PIMAGE field or a sequence of > nothing but FT_PIMAGE fields? > > If so, then... > >> For instance one definition might be: > > ...another definition might be > > http://wsgd.free.fr > > if the goal is to avoid requiring C/C++ code to be written to dissect the > payload. > > Adding a UI to allow construction of wsgd descriptions would be useful here. > >> The definition for each field mapping must be also session specific, >> as it will definitely change between dissections. > > Multiple registered wsgd descriptions, and a session-specific selection of a > description, should handle that. > ___________________________________________________________________________ > 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 ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
