sorry, for splitting the thread.
In my particular case I'm interested in only IPv4 header information.
you said In particular it is possible, but the code snippet I pasted
does not show a progress in this direction; how can I get the header
of IPv4 in TCP for example?
if(tree){
fprintf(stderr,"%d\n",tree->finfo->start);
firstbyte=tvb_get_guint8(tree->finfo->ds_tvb,tree->finfo->start);
}
thanks again,

In general, no.
In particular, yes, for some information.

Note that "IP" doesn't necessarily mean IPv4, as TCP runs over IPv6 as
well. What information are you trying to get?
