From cc36f0b9312fc36778bf227cbaaf02c89baf09b3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Laurent Deniel Date: Sun, 13 Aug 2000 14:09:15 +0000 Subject: Add the "Edit:Protocols..." feature which currently only implements the following: It is now possible to enable/disable a particular protocol decoding (i.e. the protocol dissector is void or not). When a protocol is disabled, it is displayed as Data and of course, all linked sub-protocols are disabled as well. Disabling a protocol could be interesting: - in case of buggy dissectors - in case of wrong heuristics - for performance reasons - to decode the data as another protocol (TODO) Currently (if I am not wrong), all dissectors but NFS can be disabled (and dissectors that do not register protocols :-) I do not like the way the RPC sub-dissectors are disabled (in the sub-dissectors) since this could be done in the RPC dissector itself, knowing the sub-protocol hfinfo entry (this is why, I've not modified the NFS one yet). Two functions are added in proto.c : gboolean proto_is_protocol_enabled(int n); void proto_set_decoding(int n, gboolean enabled); and two MACROs which can be used in dissectors: OLD_CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA(index, pd, offset, fd, tree) CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA(index, tvb, pinfo, tree) See also the XXX in proto_dlg.c and proto.c around the new functions. svn path=/trunk/; revision=2267 --- packet-mip.c | 4 +++- 1 file changed, 3 insertions(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'packet-mip.c') diff --git a/packet-mip.c b/packet-mip.c index f804ef8da8..c6913b8d53 100644 --- a/packet-mip.c +++ b/packet-mip.c @@ -2,7 +2,7 @@ * Routines for Mobile IP dissection * Copyright 2000, Stefan Raab * - * $Id: packet-mip.c,v 1.7 2000/08/11 13:35:14 deniel Exp $ + * $Id: packet-mip.c,v 1.8 2000/08/13 14:08:28 deniel Exp $ * * Ethereal - Network traffic analyzer * By Gerald Combs @@ -147,6 +147,8 @@ dissect_mip(const u_char *pd, int offset, frame_data *fd, proto_tree *tree) packet_info *pinfo = π tvb = tvb_create_from_top(offset); + CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA(proto_mip, tvb, pinfo, tree); + /* Make entries in Protocol column and Info column on summary display */ pinfo->current_proto = "Mobile IP"; -- cgit v1.2.1
