Hi, I'm developing a plug-in for Wireshark and I have dissected headers and trailers that belongs to my protocol. Now I want to dissect the data part of the packages. For this part I have a XML file that represent a description of it. It will tell where in the data part I can find different variables, their size in bits, their unit etc. So, I have some parts of the protocol that will never change (headers and trailers) and one part that might change (the data part described by the XML file). How can I be able to access the information in the XML file in my plug-in and use it for dissection of the data part? asked 13 Aug '15, 05:50  Sof |
One Answer:
There is currently no way to have dynamic dissection from any sort of configuration file, the colsest is asn2ws which can create C code from an ASN1 description with the aid of templates and configuration files. So you would have to write code from scratch to do that. answered 13 Aug '15, 07:40  Anders ♦ edited 13 Aug '15, 07:40 |
