Jeff, Martin - Martin - thanks for your suggestion. I will definitely open a new bug to track this issue if need be. However, in the meantime, following Jeff's suggestion, I installed the latest (nightly?) build ( 0.99.8-SVN-24191) from the download site.
With the new import, I do not see the extra </proto> element anymore but I noticed several <field> elements were included directly under <packet>. See below for a snippet from my capture file... <packet> <proto ... ...> <field name="tcp.checksum" .... .... > <field name="tcp.checksum_good" ..../> <field name="tcp.checksum_bad" .... /> </field> </proto> <field name="data" .... /> <field name="data.data" ... .../> </packet> #Second packet, third packet...... <packet> ... </packet> Is this valid? I tried looking up a schema doc for PDML but no luck? Is there one available somewhere? The following comment that I found in the notes for bug 2815 confirms my doubt... ------- Comment #4 from [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2008-01-12 00:39 GMT ------- Change 24069 avoids closing off Data protocol nodes (even though they are written out as field elements), since field elements are written out as simple tags. I don't know if having field elements immediately inside the packet element (rather than being inside a protocol element) is allowed by the PDML schema.. --------------------------------------------End Comment --------------------------------------------- Thanks Prasad On Jan 25, 2008 3:36 PM, Jeff Morriss <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > This problem was fixed after 0.99.7 was released.
