Guy It is a pointer into the data that I have constructed based on the data in the packet. There is a lot of packets before these 8 bytes and there is a lot of packets after these 8 bytes. I am controlling where I am at with the prt / offset. Before I was just skipping this packet because I was not sure how to format it. So I was just doing: ptr += 8; offset += 8; To skip over these 8 bytes. But now (as you are aware)...I just want to grab these 8 bytes (which is UTC time since the epoc in milliseconds)....and I want to format it into some kind of readable date. It doesn't matter the format of the date... I just want to be able to read it. (for example: 1-21-2010 15:36.... or something like this). I also have to figure out if I need to swap these bytes or not as well. Some of the other packets (that are before these bytes and after these bytes) I had to swap them first to make sense out of them. Thanks, Brian Guy Harris wrote:

Did you get a pointer to the packet data with tvb_get_ptr(), or is it a pointer into data you've constructed based on the data in the packet? ___________________________________________________________________________ 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-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
