With Wireshark/tshark 1.3.4, if the preferences file has a column
whose Field type is IEEE 802.11 RSSI, then, when a capture file is read,
the program will terminate with a popup similar to the following:
Microsoft visual C++ Runtime Library
Runtime Error!
Program: c:\progra~1\wireshark.exe
This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
The command window in which tshark was invoked will show:
C:\tmp\PCROAK~1>tshark -n -r failure-filtered.pcap
**
ERROR:column-utils.c:1539:???: code should not be reached
This is very simple to recreate - in Preferences -> User Interface ->
Columns, simply add a new column of Field Type "IEEE 802.11 RSSI",
then read in a capture file.
Attached are a preferences file (which differs from the stock one only
by the addition of the RSSI column), and a packet capture file, that
can be used to demonstrate the bug.
