Hi,

I have been adding checking to proto.c (that will be protected by #ifdef ENABLE_CHECK_FILTER) to see if range_string arrays passed into tmp_fld_check_assert() look sensible.

The checks I'm doing are:

(1) it is a problem if the max is < min for any range_string

(2) if an entry within an array is *completely* hidden by an earlier one, that is a problem (they are checked in the order they are given in try_rval_to_str_idx()

It is common to have a 'catch-all' case for parts or all of the range, which is Ok if it comes after more specific entries.  I'm wondering if its worth complaining if *part* of an entry is hidden by an earlier one?  Current output from master is as below.  I will try to fix them up where I can access the relevant specs, but wanted to check my understanding of how they work and how fussy we should be?  I will most likely update README.dissector to make sure it is clear how it is evaluated in order.

Best regards,

Martin
