Problems creating CORBA dissector

Hi,

I have just updated to Wireshark 1.12.4 and I'm trying to build a dissector from our CORBA IDL. I have done this before 
for earlier versions of Wireshark, so know the basic procedure.

I am building on Windows 7

I am creating the package-quentin.c file using the command

c:\Python27\omniorb\omniORB-4.1.6\bin\x86_win32\omniidl.exe -p d:\wireshark-1.12.4\tools -b wireshark_be Q_Quentin.idl 
packet-quentin.c

I'm adding this file to the epan\dissectors folder and modifying Custom.common so it gets built.

All that bit seems to work and I get a build of Wireshark that includes my dissector.

Then when I come to use it I am getting lots of "Malformed Packet" errors and \000 printed on the decoded string

e.g.

33           13:56:58.317297                10.71.193.9         10.71.193.76       Q_QUENTIN       GIOP 1.2 Request, 
s=64 id=1213876: op=getZoneNumber\000[Malformed Packet]
44           13:56:58.512235                10.71.193.18       10.71.193.9         Q_QUENTIN       GIOP 1.2 Request, 
s=64 id=1758785: op=serverIsUp\000

Any idea what I need to do to make this work properly

Thanks

Andy Ling
