Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] New field types proposal

[Tomas Kukosa <tomas.kukosa@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I think about following new field types:
1) FT_UUID - Universally Unique IDentifier
    fixed length 16 bytes
    display format XXXXXXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXX-XXXXXXXXXXXX
2) FT_OID - ASN.1 OBJECT IDENTIFIER
    variable length
    dotted numeric display format (could be alternated with display option)
3) FT_PSTRING - conditional printable string
    variable length
    display format like FT_STRING if all charactes are printable, like FT_BYTES if not


What dou you think about it?

Unfortunately I have not implemented any field type and I do not know how much work it 
would be. Hints are welcome.

    Tomas
