Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] flagging gaps in sequence

Hi,

 

I’m fairly new to Wireshark development...actually, I just started today.

 

I wrote a plugin for a UDP based protocol and it’s working fine.  The protocol has a sequence number as the second field (4 bytes, offset = 2 bytes).  The sequence numbers are sent sequentially, but since this is UDP, I am not guaranteed to receive all packets.  How can I get the plugin to check for gaps in the sequence numbers?

 

Thanks.
