I made a mistake on the last line. It should be like you had it:
guint8* pdata = tvbc_get_bytes_ptr( tvbc, dlen );
But anyway...
Given a sequential accessor for tvbuffs, how would you like
to add the data to the proto_tree? The current proto_tree_add_*()
routines take an offset and a byte length.
One way would be to provide proto_tree_add_*() routines that
take a tvbuff_cursor_t* as an argument, and the routine directly
queries the cursor about the offset and length of its previous
access. You'd have to call the proto_tree_add*() function
before using the cursor again, though.
