Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] What is BASE_HEX_DEC

Are there description comments for the enum values in the header file
where they are defined?

e.g.

BASE_DEC,     /* displayed as dec */
BASE_HEX,     /* displayed as hex */
BASE_DEC_HEX, /* displayed as dec(hex) */
BASE_HEX_DEC, /* displayed as hex(dec) */

Because, for whatever reason, some people want the value of a numeric
field displayed in both hexadecimal and decimal.

Declared in epan/proto.h, defined in epan/proto.c.

They're in the libwireshark library.  By default, libwireshark is built
as a Windows DLL for Windows, and as a UN*X shared library (.so, .sl,
.dylib, whatever your particular UN*X calls it) on UN*X.
