Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] [Wireshark-commits] rev 35253: /trunk/ /trunk/doc/: README.developer /trunk/epan

[Stephen Fisher <steve@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I've introduced a new function called tvb_get_ephemeral_unicode_string() 
for converting UTF-16 strings in a tvbuff to UTF-8 for display in 
Wireshark.  This new function even works with tshark (at least on Unix) 
if using a UTF-8 compatiable terminal emulator:

SMB 194 Trans2 Request, QUERY_PATH_INFO, Query File Basic Info,
Path: \stephen.fisher\tést.txt

Otherwise, the UTF-8 is mangled:

SMB 194 Trans2 Request, QUERY_PATH_INFO, Query File Basic Info, 
Path: \stephen.fisher\tést.txt

(see next rev, 35254, for my proof of concept change to use this 
function in the SMB dissector)
