Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Is there a need for a 0, NULL element at the end of value strings

[Richard Sharpe <realrichardsharpe@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi folks,

I have always put a {0, NULL} element on the end of value strings, but
it seems the lua code for constructing value strings when you use
ProtoField(..., some_value_string) does not terminate the list with an
empty element, and my test did not cause a crash.

Rather, I got an "unknown" field as expected.

Can anyone confirm they are not needed?
