The warning is saying that the parameter 'pinfo' is NOT used inside the
function.
It is not important.
Try this : "packet_info *pinfo _U_," instead of "packet_info *pinfo,"
(not sure that the warning will disappear).
The "storage" error ?
Absolutely not sure.
Try :
- remove the static keyword
- put the 2 functions in the same file where you call tcp_dissect_pdus
- put the 2 functions before the place where you call tcp_dissect_pdus
- do not declare function inside functions

Clifford Sibanda a �crit :
Thank you Olivier for responding
The reason why I attempted to do the reassemble the long way wa
because using the tcp_dissect_pdus I get the following errors
:647:error: invalid storage class for function 'dissect_l2i_message'
for this line
static void dissect_l2i_message(tvbuff_t *tvb, packet_info *pinfo,
proto_tree *tree)
{
and same error for this line
:652: error: invalid storage class for function 'get_l2i_message_len'
for this line
static guint get_l2i_message_len(packet_info *pinfo, tvbuff_t *tvb,
int offset)
{
also
a warning
:651: warning: unused parameter 'pinfo'
for the same line
static guint get_l2i_message_len(packet_info *pinfo, tvbuff_t *tvb,
int offset)
{
I'm not sure what it is that I'm doing wrong here
I have taken note of void assignment by next_tvb=
And i have removed it but I suppose if I can get the tcp_dissect_pdus
to work for me the better because my protocol is running atop tcp.
Regards
Clifford

before dissecting
Hello,
The displayed error says that tvb_set_child_real_data_tvbuff returns
void (nothing).
See epan/tvbuff.h
So you are trying : next_tvb=void
Other thing :
I do not understand why you are trying to do reassembly by yourself
since this is the goal of tcp_dissect_pdus.
