Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] Need help with protocol that spans multiple TVBs
Be careful. I believe that it is presentation (e.g. the PDV lists of
the P-connect) that decide the dissector to be called from within ACSE.
A close inspection would yeild that the PDV lists contains two(2) OIDs
(e.g. one for ACSE and the other for MMS/FTAM etc...). Addtionally, the
order of the PDVs is not guaranteed (e.g. MMS could occur before ACSE).

Yes, although, ideally, the ACSE dissector should perhaps have a
string-based dissector table for the OID of the protocol using ACSE, so
that dissectors for those protocols can just register in the dissector
table, rather than having the ACSE dissector have a hard-wired
association of OIDs with dissectors.
Good idea.
What is the best way to do it ?
I mean should we have some registration function inside ACSE dissector
which will be called by FTAM/CMIP/MMS and so on dissectors ?
