Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] [Patch] DCT2000: treat variant as string

From: Martin Mathieson <martin.mathieson@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Fri, 09 Jun 2006 13:55:08 +0100
Hi,

This patch:
- treats the variant field as a variable-length string field. This is needed for some of the more complicated protocols where the variant number of the embedded protocol is also represented

Regards,
Martin

P.S.
- the patch to Makefile.am was not applied from http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200606/msg00009.html Is this the correct place (to make sure dtd files get installed on developer builds) ?
