That documentation is generated automatically from the Wireshark source code that implements the Tvb class, but the C source code for that particular function wasn't using the proper convention to cause the documentation generator to recognize the argument. That's been fixed in the main branch and in the 4.2, 4.0, and 3.6 branches. > Section 11.7 > This section seems to have some formatting issues.

The "Example" subsection should be subsection 11.7.1.2.1, i.e. it should be a subsection of 11.7.1.2. > Additionally, the documentation for treeitem:add() and similar functions have > mismatched brackets in the sentence: > This function has a complicated form: 'treeitem:add([protofield,] [tvbrange,] > value], label)', such that ... > (In fact that whole paragraph is a bit confusing to understand).

I'm not sure anything other than examples of every single possible way in which it can be called would be understandable. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
