I do the following to create only one conversation per "Configuration
Frame":
if (config_frame && !pinfo->fd->flags.visited) {
data = extract_data(...);
conversation = conversation_new(...);
conversation_add_proto_data(conversation, proto_handle, data);
}
An example of what's going wrong:
In the capture I have here, the configuation frame is fragmented into
two TCP segments:
1460 Bytes in frame #7 and
864 Bytes in frame #8.
1460+864 = 2324 = correct length of configuration frame
On the first run or when I comment out the two lines mentioned,
'tcp_dissect_pdus()' calls my get-length-callback for frame 7 and 8,
both times the callback returns '2324', then the routine to dissect the
PDU is called.
But when I create the conversation in the first run and I click on
packet 8 in the packet list, then the get-length-callback is called for
frame 8 with a tvb containing some wrong data, so it extracts and
returns a wrong length (17460 Bytes in this case) -> the dissection
routine isn't called.
Reassembling and dissection for following "Data Frames" is working
correct in both cases.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jens
