Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] tshark showing null values in the generated pdml file

This is because of the fix for bug 1110
(https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1110). Since the
exact type of the data in the short_message field is not fixed (it can
be text in different character sets or binary), its field type is
FT_NULL. You can see the details and progress of the mentioned bug for
more details.
