Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Extending wireshark with Python

[Sébastien Tandel <sebastien.tandel@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

instead of binpac, and since you're doing python, would it be useful to to use
pyconstruct
http://pyconstruct.wikispaces.com/
as a (simplified) protocol fields "Description Language"?

I did not know about pyconstruct. Worth take a look at it. ;)

 

That way pythoners can reuse their pyconstruct code directly in Wireshark?

same as for binpac, could be useful for the ones who already wrote dissectors with it. 

So, it might be interesting to have both of them available for wireshark. I don't know tough what sort of limits (or not) pyconstruct could have.

Regards,

Sebastien Tandel
