Modbus/TCP hookup for subdissector

Hello As I need it for daily work, I have integrated subdissector code into the Modbus/TCP dissector. Find the patch for this attached to https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=5786 But here I have a question. All the information I need for the subdissector is the actual payload of the Modbus/TCP datastream. Additional information is not needed. Therefore the dissector table get's registered on the id "mbtcp.data" , and another dissector has to register to that table using the keyword "data" I have two questions about this process. 1. Is there a way to provide additional information to the subdissector? Someone could use private_data, but that field I need somewhere else, therefore can not be used here. 2. Should the table be registered in such a way? It seems rather pointless, to just register using the keyword. A way, where you could just register without providing sub information could be more useful, as mbtcp.data says anyway for what you are registering. kind regards, Roland ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
