Hello. I read packet header and try to read string length and string data. But string length field has illegal value. I add expert info. But how to stop dissection after adding expert info? I can not dissect rest of packet at this point. I can return error code from this function, but calling tree may be too big. May be exists more graceful solution? Something like exceptions in C++. PS. I found DISSECTOR_VERIFY_DATA in mailing lists, but it is not implemented in source code. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
