Hi
I want to fix a bug in the tcap dissector, specifically in the function dissect_UniDialoguePDU_PDU. This is a generated dissector, therefore I've looked for the generating code, but I got lost in the maze of the generation of this dissector.
Any help on which code in the tree I should change for this specific function?

This function is auto-generated by asn2wrs.py based on the EXPORTS directive found in tcap.cnf.
May I ask you what you want to fix? I hardly see what could be buggy in the function itself (all the EXPORTS functions assume that you have a byte aligned buffer; if this not the case for this specific payload then the EXPORTS directive should not be used and some manual code should  be written in the template file instead).

Best regards,
Pascal.
