thank ,
but its still not working :-(
meybe the scenario im trying here is wrong .
it looks like this :
 
i am trying to send two separate buffers , and dissect them as one message .

byte[] b1 = { 0, 3 };               //header

byte[] b2 = { 5, 5, 5 };          //data

my dissector is for a 5 bytes message , and is successfull when i send the message like this  byte[] buffer = { 0, 3, 5, 5, 5 }; 

my dissection code is :

static guint get_message_len(packet_info *pinfo, tvbuff_t *tvb, int offset)//a

{

    return 3;           // the value from the header that represents the length of the data coming after the header

 }

static

void foo_msg_dissect(tvbuff_t *tvb, packet_info *pinfo, proto_tree *tree)

 {

        tcp_dissect_pdus(tvb, pinfo, tree, TRUE, 2,get_message_len, dissect_foo);

 }

void

dissect_mxm(tvbuff_t *tvb, packet_info *pinfo, proto_tree *tree)

{

     if (check_col(pinfo->cinfo, COL_PROTOCOL))

          col_set_str(pinfo->cinfo, COL_PROTOCOL,

"mxm");

     if (check_col(pinfo->cinfo,COL_INFO))

          col_clear(pinfo->cinfo,COL_INFO);

     if (tree) /* we are being asked for details */

    {

          proto_item *ti;

          mxm *msg;  

          ti = proto_tree_add_item(tree, proto_mxm, tvb, 0, -1, FALSE);

          tree = proto_item_add_subtree(ti, ett_mxm);

          msg = ep_alloc(

sizeof(mxm));

          /* call the call dissection logic for my message . */

        ............

        ............

    }

}

 

problem is my message is not being reassmbled .

When i try to dissect with this code , wireshark throws an exception for each part of the buffer i send (b1 & b2) ,

and i see in the GUI  only the header tree, but with different values (first packet with  the right header values , and 2nd packet with values from the message itself . )

 

Thanks

Yonatan

You do not need to modify those variables when using tcp_dissect_pdus.

Those variables are used for more complex desegmentation for TCP as well
as other protocols.  Refer to section 2.7 of doc/README.developer for
more details.
