I am trying to build a giop dissector from our own CORBA IDL. I am generating
the C code using omniorb and the wireshark backend generator using the
command..

c:\Python27\omniorb\omniORB-4.1.6\bin\x86_win32\omniidl -p
c:\wireshark-1.10.3\tools -b wireshark_be q_quentin.idl > packet-quentin.c

I have a function declared in the IDL that looks like..

  typedef sequence <long> Longs ;
  void newThumbnail (in long ident, in long offset, in long width, in long
height, in Longs data) ;

The packet-quentin.c file contains code that looks like

    case Request:
        proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_ident, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

        proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_offset, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

        proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_width, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

        proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_height, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

        u_octet4_loop_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data =
get_CDR_ulong(tvb, offset, stream_is_big_endian, boundary);
        /* coverity[returned_pointer] */
        item = proto_tree_add_uint(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data, tvb,*offset-4, 4,
u_octet4_loop_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data);

        for (i_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data=0;
i_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data <
u_octet4_loop_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data;
i_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data++) {

            proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

        }

I've attached the full packet-quentin.c in case it helps.

If I run this I get an error in the dissector

Q_quentin Dissector Using GIOP API
    ident: 0
    offset: 1073
    width: 90
    height: 72
    Seq length of data: 6480

followed by..

Message: proto.c:3174: failed assertion "DISSECTOR_ASSERT_NOT_REACHED"

It looks like the variable used in the loop is wrong. This needs a new
variable creating. e.g. 

{&hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data_int,
{"data","giop-q_quentin.ThumbnailListener.newThumbnail.data.int",FT_INT32,BASE_DEC,NULL,0x0,NULL,HFILL}},

and the loop changing to use this e.g. 

            proto_tree_add_int(tree,
hf_Quentin_ThumbnailListener_newThumbnail_data_int, tvb, *offset-4, 4,
get_CDR_long(tvb,offset,stream_is_big_endian, boundary));

This only seems to be a problem when it is a sequence of longs. Other sequences
look correct.

I have also tried with the development build 1.11.2 and that fails in the same
way.

I would have a go at fixing it, but my Python isn't good enough to work out
what to change.
