Re: Updating plugin for 1.4.0

Hi Beth, 

Things have been tightened up to prevent crashes from
happening. Seems that your dissector does something it shouldn't. 

Get
out your debugger and see what it tells you. 

Thanks,
Jaap

I wrote some plugins under
1.2.x awhile back, which have been used successfully for some time now. 


I tried using them with 1.4.0 (hey it was worth a shot :) but got an
error so I downloaded the 1.4.0 tarball and rebuilt them. However I
still get the error! Can those of you with 1.4 knowledge suggest where I
should start looking for the problem? The error is simply: 

10:39:15
Warn Dissector bug, protocol MyProto, in packet 1:
STATUS_ACCESS_VIOLATION: dissector accessed an invalid memory address


Whatever it is, it's something that happens with 1.4.0 but not with
1.2.11 . I have not (yet) touched the plugin source code. 
Any
suggestions appreciated!
