Hi,

You can't have a space or caps in the preference name.

Thanx,
Jaap

Hi,

I'm trying to add a list of protocol versions in the preferences menu
using:

plugin with prefs_register_enum_preference

I've followed the example of other working dissectors.

The plugin compiles correctly but when I copy the dll to the wireshark
plugin directory and run wireshark I get the error message:

"runtime error!

Program: C:\wireshark-trunk\wireshark-gtk2\wireshark.exe

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
"

The code is here:

#define PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_11 "ISMACRYP 1.1"
#define PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_20 "ISMACRYP 2.0"

.....

/* The ISMACryp protocol version set in preferences menu */
static gint version_type = 11; /* ISMACryp 1.1 */

.......

static enum_val_t version_types[] = {
 {PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_11, PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_11, 11},
 {PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_20, PROTO_TAG_ISMACRYP_20, 20},
 {NULL, NULL, 0}        <- some dissectors have -1 here instead of 0
but makes no difference

};

........

prefs_register_enum_preference(ismacryp_module, "ismacryp_encoding",
           "ISMACryp version",
           "ISMACryp version",
           &version_type, version_types, FALSE);


If I comment the lines for prefs_register_enum_preference things work
ok.
I haven't attempted to add it as a dissector to see if that works
(slower than just compiling a plugin).
Any thoughts?

Tnanks for your feedback,

David
