No, but you can get the address as a binary value from pinfo- >{src,dst} and then convert it to a string using ip_to_str() or ip_to_str_buf() for IPv4 addresses and ip6_to_str() or ip6_to_str_buf() for IPv6 addresses (or address_to_str() or address_to_str_buf() if you have an address structure and want to handle all possible address types). The expectation is that the address-as-a-string would be used only for stuff to be shown directly to users, and that a dissector would do all the other work with binary addresses. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
