Hi, when i tried to use your code:
pi = proto_tree_add_text(tree, "Test: %s", tvb, 0, 0, _FunctionFunc()); _FunctionFunc() returns a char * PROTO_ITEM_SET_GENERATED(pi); I got these errors: packet-foo.c packet-foo.c(167) : error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' file generated packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4133: 'function' : incompatible types - from 'char [9]' to 'tvbuff_t *' packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4047: 'function' : 'gint' differs in levels of indirection from 'tvbuff_t *' packet-foo.c(167) : warning C4024: 'proto_tree_add_text' : different types for formal and actual parameter 3 plugin.c Generating Code... NMAKE : fatal error U1077: '"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\BIN\cl.EXE"' : return code '0x2' Stop. Any ideas as to how to fix this? _______________________________________________________ > i have looked at those and it doesnt seem to be what i'm looking for. > I want to do something such as proto_tree_add_text(tree, "TEST", tvb, > 0, 0, function_call_that_returns_"TEST"() ); > > so that in the tree it will output something like TEST: TEST. however, > the first "TEST" is supposed to be an int, but i do not know how to > get around not using a static const value_string. Try this: proto_tree_add_text(tree, "%d: TEST", tvb, 0, 0, function()); Since the value is coming from something other than the packet, put brackets around it: proto_item *pi; pi = proto_tree_add_text(tree, "%d: TEST", tvb, 0, 0, function));; PROTO_ITEM_SET_GENERATED(pi); It will then show up as: [5: TEST] Steve ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
