Compiling Wireshark with WinPcap 4.1 beta4 Developer's Pack

<div>

<br><p>Hi,

<br>Experementing with compiling Wireshark with WinPcap 4.1 beta4 Developer's Pack and Visual studio 2008 I had to make the following changes.</p>

<p>As ntddndis.h is no longer included in WinPcap I assume some SDK is needed with some of the various Windows compilers we use(?)</p>

<p>Can some one help with proper #if defs to use? 
</p>

tvbuff_t->ds_tvb for TVBUFF_REAL_DATA may end up unset

Hi,

while developping a small exemplary dissector, I was puzzled that
tvb_new() and tvb_set_real_data() do not set the new tvbuff's ds_tvb
member, whereas tvb_new_real_data() does. I don't know whether this
is intentional, but it is at least highly counterintuitive given the
documentation of that function in the header file:

] /** Combination of tvb_new() and tvb_set_real_data(). Can throw ReportedBoundsError. */
] extern tvbuff_t* tvb_new_real_data(const guint8* data, guint length,
]     gint reported_length);

This suggests that both ways of creating a new REAL_DATA tvbuff are
functionally equivalent. (I ended up with several proto_nodes having
->finfo->ds_tvb == NULL, so the tabbed display wouldn't switch to the
correct data source tab when these nodes were selected.)

Just my two cent, regards,

Jan

inserting row into packet list pane

Is there any possible way to insert a (fake/generated) frame into a packet list pane?
It does not have to be a frame with a number, just an entry line in a pane is enough.

The reason for doing this is a fact that there might be more structured chunks 
inside UDP payload. I would like to have each chunk listed separately in a packet
list pane and then being able to filter chunks (instead of complete frames).

Any idea?

regards,
Zoran
