Thank you for your answer!
1. yes , it is a permanently allocated string.
2. actually i used col_append_str() for appending something. At the
beginning i used col_add_str(), as i getted adviced from the developer
guide. I wrote "col_set_str()" by mistake in my first email. Apologise!
Thanks for the tip anyway!
windows debugger: Thanks i will check it!
FYI:
I loosed my problem actually by adding the col_append_str() routines before
the " if (tree) {...}" in my dissector.
But my question remains.....why was it working in linux but in windows
not???
If you feel like giving your answer here, thanks in advance!
Cheers
Manthos
