Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] [PATCH][UPDATE] analyzing SHIM6 protocol

Hi,

some quick comments :

- in hf_register_info, there are two items of the same name :
hf_ipv6_shim6_opt_len
- you should create an helper function to add hf_ipv6_shim6_ct to the tree.
- instead of dissect_shim_ip_addr, use
proto_tree_add_item/proto_tree_add_ipv6. The type of the item is then
FT_IPv6.


Regards,
Sebastien Tandel
