I am running into some error conditions in decoding WLCCP and would like to catch the error and print a nice message in the protocol tree at the point the error occurs and stop decoding at that point.
I have the logic down, but I'm trying to understand the best way to place the "nice message" into the protocol tree. Proto_tree_add_string sounds like the right function, but the arguments seem to indicate otherwise. I think proto_tree_add_string is going to add a string to the tree based on data that is pulled from the packet. In my case, though, I'm not basing my string on data that's in the packet. Instead, it's just a nice warning message that something is wrong with the packet format. What's the best way to handle this? (apologies if this has come to the list multiple times, we just changed our mail system and I've not been seeing my own posts) --kan-- -- Kevin A.
