I'm looking at binpac for other reasons, but would be interested in using it
to generate Wireshark dissectors too.
I do, however, have one question before I head too far down this path. How
do people feel about introducing C++ to Wireshark? I ask because binpac
currently generates C++ code.
I can use binpac as it stands to generate dissectors, but adding a C backend
to binpac is out of scope for me at this time.
