Within a Lua based post dissector, setting the pinfo.cols.protocol seems to
work intermittently. Sometimes it prints my protocol name (G2S), much of the
rest of the time it reverts to HTTP/XML. When I enter G2S as a filter, I get
all of the proper packets displayed, and my post dissector display the data
from xml.cdata that it should, but the Protocol column shows G2s on the first
packet, then 3 HTTP/XML, one G2S, 12 HTTP/XML, one G2S, 4 HTTP/XML, 3 G2S, 14
HTTP/XML, 1 G2S, etc., etc.
In V1.4 this same script would display G2S for all packets that are correctly
G2S. In the Forums, I posted a question titled Lua Post Dissector from V1.4
breaks in V1.6 describing the bug and if anyone else could replicate. One
respondent said he could, and therefore please file as a bug. See that posting
for additional details.
