Wireshark · Wireshark-bugs: [Wireshark-bugs] [Bug 7227] Need full support for character encodings for strings

[bugzilla-daemon@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Comment # 7 on bug 7227 from Guy Harris

OK, the current state is that if you modify the dissector to use the new
add_packet_field method for a TreeItem, and use an encoding of
ENC_UTF_16+ENC_BIG_ENDIAN, ENC_UTF_16+ENC_LITTLE_ENDIAN, or
ENC_ISO_8859_8+ENC_NA, the field displays, but it's shown as a sequence of C
escape sequences.

Either

    1) Lua would have to support setting the STR_ value for the field to
STR_UNICODE

or

    2) we'd have to use some other mechanism to decide how to display the
characters of the string.
