Can you tell whoever imposed those design requirements that perhaps
they should impose *on the DLL* a design requirement that there be
ways of getting, for each field, the *raw data* rather than some
"helpful" human-readable interpretation of the field - and that it
return the raw byte offset and length-in-bytes of a field, if it
doesn't do so already - if they're going to make use of the DLL a
requirement for the design of the Wireshark dissector?
Otherwise, it's somewhat like imposing a design requirement on a house
that the only form of hammers to be used when building the house are
sledgehammers, even for hammering nails into walls.
