Hi

I wanted to add some options in the preference window for my dissector. This is the code I have added to the “proto_register” function:

 

module_t *dan_lte_sdk_module;

 

proto_dan_lte_sdk = proto_register_protocol ("DAN LTE SDK Protocol", "Dan LTE SDK", "dan_lte_sdk");

 

register_init_routine(dan_defragment_init);

 

proto_register_field_array (proto_dan_lte_sdk, hf, array_length (hf));

proto_register_subtree_array (ett, array_length (ett));

register_dissector("dan_lte_sdk", dissect_dan_lte_sdk, proto_dan_lte_sdk);

 

dan_lte_sdk_module = prefs_register_protocol(proto_dan_lte_sdk, NULL);

 

prefs_register_bool_preference(dan_lte_sdk_module, "Dissect_MAC_Payload",

                               "Dissect MAC Layer from Data Payload",

                               "In Uplink and Downlink data packets, dissect MAC heaser layer "

                               "Disabling MAC dissection will disable RLC dissection automaticly",

                               &global_dan_lte_sdk_dissect_MAC);

 

prefs_register_bool_preference(dan_lte_sdk_module, "Dissect_RLC_Payload",

                               "Dissect RLC Layer from Data Payload",

                               "In Uplink and Downlink data packets, dissect RLC heaser layer ",

                               &global_dan_lte_sdk_dissect_RLC);

 

It works fine until I add those two (even one of them)  "prefs_register_bool_preference" functions. What did I do wrong?

I get a "Runtime Error!" for wireshark.exe Removing those function fixes  it back.

 

Thanks
