(For Jörg Mayer)
While reviewing the new ceph dissector [1], two issues cropped up where
my build on Linux (using Autofoo) apparently gave different results then
a build by Kevin Cox (the submitter of the new dissector) using CMake on
Linux.
He used GCC 4.9.1 and CMake while I used GCC 4.9.0 and Autofoo.
1. The Autofoo compile indicated an
"unused but set" variable
The CMake apparently did not.
Different CFlags ?
2. The ceph dissector had several value_string_ext structs
defined as 'static const ...'.
The Wireshark built with CMake worked AOK when
the ceph dissector used the extended value
strings for the first time (i.e., no exceptions).
The Wireshark built with Autofoo trapped
when the extended value string structs were used
for the first time (when there was an attempt to
write to the struct).
IOW: In one case, the structs were apparently not in a r/o section
while in the other they apparently were.
I've no idea if this difference has anything to
do with CMake vs Autofoo.
Thoughts ?
