Re: dissector array display handling

["Manthos S." <s.manthos () gmail com>]

Hello all,

i dont think it somthing terrible what i am asking for. I just want to
know which are the right expressions of "field_name" and "value" in
the following function:

proto_tree_add_bytes_format(pal_dl_DataList_subtree,
hf_pal_dataLength, tvb, offset, 4, dataLength, "%d: [ %s : %s , ", i,
field_name, value );



Any ideas?
Have a nice day!
