My dissector gets part way through a packet and then shows [ Malformed Packet: mypacket ]
I tried doing a printf of the tvb_get_remaining() just after the last item that was added. It reports I have 48 bytes left. The next thing I do is tvb_get_ntohs, but since it never reaches the following statement, I assume its generating an exception.
It most likely a problem in my code, but I don't know what to check next. Is there any way to get more information about boundry errors etc? 

Thanks,

	Andy
