Hi, You can let the user configure the filter by preferences.You can find many infos here: http://wiki.wireshark.org/Preferences and in the README.dissector file.
EX: //creates and initialize a global var static gint global_bit_order = 0; //creates an enumeration with your options const enum_val_t enum_gtp_market_data_feed[] = {{ "Little Endian", "Decode as Little Endian", "Decode as Little Endian" },
{ "Big Endian", "Decode as Big Endian", "Decode as Big Endian" }, { NULL, NULL, 0 } }; //in the proto_register function //register the preference module module = prefs_register_protocol(proto, proto_reg_handoff); //Register enum prefs_register_enum_preference(module, "bit.order", "Decode as...", "Set the bit order", &global_itch_market, enum_itch_market_data_feed, TRUE);This will create an ITEM with your protocol name in the wireshark preference window. So the user can easily configure the bit order by change preferences in Edit->Preference->Protocols->YOUPROTO window.
In your code you can check the var global_bit_order to understand if the user is filtering by BIG_END or LITTLE_END.
Hope this help and is what you need. Regards, Fabiano /Fabiano Ricci/ Il 24/07/2013 9.21, Hardik Patel ha scritto:
Hello all,I have create a plugin to dissect protocol in TCP payload which is in big endian format.But some time due to different architecture of server and client I get data in little endian format.I can write code for that as well, but I like that user can provide comment like if my capture file is little endian or big endian by any means.So based on user input I can easily select in which format dissector decode the protocol.Please help how to provide arugument or comment to customized dissector by user?Regards, Hardik Patel ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
