------- Comment #2 from martin.mathieson@xxxxxxxxxxxx 2006-06-28 09:54 GMT -------
Hopefully fixed in revision 18589.
It looks like tvb_get_ephemeral_text() struggles with the null character before
'length' characters have been read and returns NULL. proto_tree_add_text()
then chokes on the NULL string arg (or at least some implementations of
vsnprintf() do).
This change will probably fix this crash, but:
- should tvb_get_ephemeral_text() throw away characters seen before finding a
premature NULL?
- should proto_tree_add_text() test for a NULL string being passed in?
