Hi Lucio,

2012/9/25 Lucio Di Giovannantonio <lucio.digiovannantonio () gmail com>

Hello to everybody, I've found something strange in rrc filters
expression, in several cases the same filter abbreviation have different
type, this can be a problem and/or can cause a crash?

for example:

{ &hf_rrc_criticalExtensions_**117,
      { "criticalExtensions", "rrc.criticalExtensions",
        FT_UINT32, BASE_DEC, VALS(rrc_T_criticalExtensions_**117_vals),
0,
        "T_criticalExtensions_117", HFILL }},

and

{ &hf_rrc_criticalExtensions_**118,
      { "criticalExtensions", "rrc.criticalExtensions",
        FT_NONE, BASE_NONE, NULL, 0,
        "T_criticalExtensions_118", HFILL }},


This is a side effect of the code auto generated from the ASN.1
description. I proposed a workaround in bug 2402 comment #14.
With it, the filters become:
{ &hf_rrc_criticalExtensions_117,
      { "criticalExtensions", "rrc.criticalExtensions",
        FT_UINT32, BASE_DEC, VALS(rrc_T_criticalExtensions_117_vals), 0,
        "T_criticalExtensions_117", HFILL }},

and

{ &hf_rrc_criticalExtensions_118,
      { "criticalExtensions", "rrc.criticalExtensions_label",
        FT_NONE, BASE_NONE, NULL, 0,
        "T_criticalExtensions_118", HFILL }},

But I'm not really satisfied with the _label extension and could not come
up to a better wording, so did not commit it. Any comment / suggestion is
welcome :)

Regards,
Pascal.

Is this due to "duplicated field" names? If so one could try to rename
them, but as I remember there is lots...


Yes this is due to the duplicated field names. Renaming all of them is a
nightmare... That's why my patch was addressing the worst case (FT_NONE vs
everything else). It will not cover all cases for sure, but it was a bit
better than nothing...
