It should be able to do so. If not, that's a bug. (That's why the size of the fixed-length part of the message is passed as an argument to tcp_dissect_pdus()). There were, in at least some Wireshark releases, bugs that caused that not to work correctly. Try it with the latest version of Wireshark, and, if it doesn't work, file a bug on bugs.wireshark.org, preferably with a sample capture file that demonstrates the bug (just include enough packets to demonstrate the problem - you can throw all other packets away, as long as loading the resulting capture shows the problem). > Or the plugin needs to take care of it once the tcp_dissect_pdus() functin > returns. > Any examples available to handle this ? Just use tcp_dissect_pdus() - it should just handle this; you don't need to do anything special, just pass the length of the fixed-length part of the message. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
