Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: [Ethereal-dev] Updates to packet-x509ce.c

[Yaniv Kaul <ykaul@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How do I update this code? It's supposedly being auto-magically done by 
some woo-doo stuff mentioned at the top of the file:

/* Do not modify this 
file.                                                   */
/* It is created automatically by the ASN.1 to Ethereal dissector 
compiler    */
/* 
packet-x509ce.c                                                            
*/
/* ../../tools/asn2eth.py -X -b -p x509ce -c x509ce.cnf -s 
packet-x509ce-template CertificateExtensions.asn */

/* Input file: packet-x509ce-template.c */
/* Include files: packet-x509ce-hf.c, packet-x509ce-ett.c, 
packet-x509ce-fn.c, packet-x509ce-hfarr.c, packet-x509ce-ettarr.c, 
packet-x509ce-val.h */


I wish to add dissection to GeneralName_choice, to dissect directoryName 
[4] .
I noticed asn1/x509ce/CertificateExtensions.asn, has these lines:
GeneralName ::= CHOICE {
--   otherName                  [0]  IMPLICIT INSTANCE OF OTHER-NAME,
 rfc822Name                 [1]  IMPLICIT IA5String,
 dNSName                    [2]  IMPLICIT IA5String,
--  x400Address                [3]  IMPLICIT ORAddress,
--  directoryName              [4]  IMPLICIT Name,
--  ediPartyName               [5]  IMPLICIT EDIPartyName,
 uniformResourceIdentifier  [6]  IMPLICIT IA5String,
 iPAddress                  [7]  IMPLICIT OCTET STRING,
 registeredID               [8]  IMPLICIT OBJECT IDENTIFIER
}

What does "---" means? Seems like comments.
Can I remove it?
