Hi,
when i tried to use your code:
pi = proto_tree_add_text(tree, "Test: %s", tvb, 0, 0, _FunctionFunc());
_FunctionFunc() returns a char *
PROTO_ITEM_SET_GENERATED(pi);
I got these errors:
packet-foo.c
packet-foo.c(167) : error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated
packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible types - from 'char [9]' to 'tvbuff_t *'
packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'gint' differs in levels of indirection from 'tvbuff_t *'
packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4024: 'proto_tree_add_text' : different types for formal and actual parameter 3

Stop.
Any ideas as to how to fix this?

Try this:
proto_tree_add_text(tree, "%d: TEST", tvb, 0, 0, function());
Since the value is coming from something other than the packet, put
brackets around it:
proto_item *pi;
pi = proto_tree_add_text(tree, "%d: TEST", tvb, 0, 0, function));;
PROTO_ITEM_SET_GENERATED(pi);
It will then show up as:
[5: TEST]
