Hi there!
 
I am developing a dissector for a PLC communication protocol which is transported via tcp or udp.
For correct interpretation it is necessary to know the question to a reply, i.e. i need to access the data from one of the previous packets.
 
Is there some mechanism that i can use?
 
find_packet in file.c doesn't really seem to be made for this..
 
 
Any help is appreciated :)
