removed functions fast way to find substitutes?

Hello, I maintain a dissector for a proprietary protocol of my employer and now and then I grab me some current wireshark-sources and check if my dissector code is still compatible which - in recent times- unfortunately often it is not due to changes in the wireshark lib / API. So everytime my code fails to compile/link I have to check which functions were removed and which new functions do I have to use now. One of my current problems is with tvb_get_faked_unicode(...) which isn't available anymore. In my Protocol I have some Ascii-encoded String but which comes as two bytes per character. Example: {0x0031, 0x0032, 0x0033, 0x0034, 0x0000} in tvb should display in GUI/Tree/PacketList as "1234" I used to call: tvb_get_faked_unicode(NULL,tvb, 20, ((tvb_length(tvb)-20)/2),ENC_BIG_ENDIAN) and display result as %s in col_append_fstr() or as FT_STRING in proto_tree_add_string(). So could anyone give me a hint, is there a function still available for this type of encoding or do I have to write something. In general is there a fast/convenient way - other than manually looking through the sources after functions that might do what i want - to check if this function X is now replaced by function Y. Other examples I need to replace are: abs_time_to_ep_str() nstime_delta() Maybe there's some changelog containing this info? Thanks in advance.
