Hi 
Anders,
 
To include the RANAP 
messages in my dissector, I have done the 
following:
 
1.In ranap.cnf under 
#.EXPORTS, I have added the message id s which I want to 
export.
2.In packet-ranap.h, I 
have included the corresponding functions of the messages which I want to 
add.
3.In my dissector , I 
have included packet-ranap.h , packet-per.h and called the functions 
appropriately.
 
But I am getting errors 
due to some linking problems.
 
error: `actx' 
undeclared (first use in this function)
error: (Each 
undeclared identifier is reported only once
 
I have not defined 
asn1_ctx_t *actx in my dissector as I have included the appropriate 
headers.
 
Can you please 
help???
 
Regards,
Tarani

Hi 
Anders,
 
Thanks for the 
information. The dissector is propreitary , hence I cant include it in 
Wireshark.
 
I will include RANAP 
messages in the way you have mentioned.
But then , I will have 
a tough time forming packets for testing . Any clue how can I form the 
packets.
 
Thanks in 
advance.

Tarani

Subject: Including ASN.1 format coding in a 
C dissector
 
 
Hi ,
 
I have written  a dissector for 
a protocol which has a coding standard of Tag-Length-Value. Now in this 
dissector , I have to add some messages of RANAP protocol which has a coding 
standard in ASN.1 format.Already the dissector for RANAP is available in the 
wireshark. Now:
 
1.Can I call the existing dissector 
for those particular messages??? If so how do I do 
that??
2. If I want to include it normally 
in my dissector, how can I convert the ASN.1 format to obtain the tag and 
lengths of  individual parameters??
 
Can anybody please 
help??
