Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] Assert in print.c get_field_data() creating PDML file
On what data is the tvbuff created? Is it a sub-set of a previous
tvbuff, or is it a "modification" (decompression, decryption) of
previous tvbuff data? I.e., are you using a "subset" tvbuff or a "real
data" tvbuff?

Hi,
If I create a tvbuff, and do not use add_new_data_source(), but reference it
in elements added to the proto tree; then I reach "g_assert_not_reached()"
in get_field_data() in print.c when exporting to PDML. I'm currently using
ethereal 0.99.0.
Is there any good reason for this assert?
By default I do not wish to use add_new_data_source() – it appears to add a
significant amount of overhead, and since I am often using large captures
any reduction in overhead is a good thing J
BTW Within our company we've been using a modified version of ethereal as a
replacement for commercial protocol analysers, for monitoring traffic within
3G networks. It makes the commercial analysers look very poor value for
money.
I need to look through the modifications I've made to some of the existing
protocols, and contribute some of my changes (eg how 'connections' are
tracked within SCCP and ALCAP). Not least because otherwise I'll just have
to keep doing merges every time a new version is released.
Cheers,
James.
