Major API Changes

  • Lua: the various logging functions (debug, info, message, warn and critical) have been removed. Use the print function instead for debugging purposes.

[THIS MESSAGE ORIGINATED FROM A NON-IGT EMAIL ADDRESS]

 

Hi

Since upgrading to Wireshark 3 my lua dissector reports error:

"attempt to call global 'debug' (a table value)"
 
for line:

debug("PRB #" .. prb_index)

Why is this? (Sorry if this has been asked before).

Best regards

David
