Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] New dissector for TPNCP protocol

Hi,

I've a few questions on this. First of all what's the status of this external tpncp.dat file? Under what license is it distributed?

I'm not sure if I like the idea of such a 'flexible' dissector since we never can be sure of the quality of the dissector since it depends on the tpncp.dat file being loaded, and that is 'out of our control'.

I also don't like the location in the plugin directory for that matter, but that is just an implementation detail.

just my E0.02.

Hello,

I attached the new protocol dissector source code (packet-tpncp.c).

The �Makefile.common� from �epan/dissectors� directory was changed like following: the name of the new source file was added to �DISSECTOR_SRC� macro.

The new Wiki page on the protocol was created (http://wiki.wireshark.org/TPNCP).

The example of tpncp.dat file needed for proper work of TPNCP dissector attached to protocol Wiki page. This file *should not* be the part of the project and distributed separately with AudioCodes� SW Release Package. The sample captures (tpncp_udp.pcap and tpncp_tcp.pcap) were added to the SampleCaptures page.

The fuzz testing passed OK.

The following platforms were tested � Windows 2000/XP/2003/Vista, Linux RHEL/Fedora/Suse/Debian, Sun Solaris 9 and 10 (Intel and Sparc).

Please review the attached sources if they are ok and add them to repository. Please give me the feedback if I need to change something.

Thank you,

Valery.
