Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: SV: [Ethereal-dev] New dissector for content type multipart/mixed (2)

["Anders Broman" <a.broman@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Sounds good, I was thinking that the sub dissectors might need the rest of the ”header data”  but was unsure  about the best way of doing it.

 

Another thing I was thinking about is if we should make a generic dissector that took care of all media types which could be output as raw text which

could be used until some one need to do something with the content and builds a separate dissector.

Best regards

Anders

Hi Anders,

 

This version looks very promising. I took the liberty to add generalized support for multipart/mixed and multipart/related; adding support for another multipart type is straightforward. The version I have at hand already shows multipart/related over HTTP. I still need to tweak some stuff and then it can be added to the release!

 

In the modifications, I have inserted a pointer to the headers_t structure into the pinfo->private_data, where I also added the content-type parameters. I envisage to add a "media_types.h" file (in NOINST_headers) with common code for media dissection. Please comment on this.

 

Regards,

 

Olivier

Hi,

I’ve removed the checking of compact type headers as I think they will not be used in multipart/mixed,

Changed to use tvb_length_remaining in the loops instead and changed the check for unquoted boundary string in the

Content type string.

Best regards
