Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Problem writing a file dissector for vwr capture files
From: Joerg Mayer <jmayer@xxxxxxxxx>
Date: Sun, 30 Aug 2015 10:22:50 +0200
Hello,

I'm trying to write a file dissector for the IxVeriWave (.vwr) capture files
(without loosing the ability to open said capture files normally of course)
and am failing:
Running  "tshark -X 'read_format:MIME Files Format' -V -r testfile.vwr" (or
the equivalent steps in wireshark) results in
tshark: The file "testfile.vwr" isn't a capture file in a format TShark understands.
Trying to just take over the complete capture file was also unsuccessful.
I've attached the current source of the dissector. Simple question: What am
I missing ;-)
In case you want to test, use the capture attached to bug 11464.

Thanks
   Jörg

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
