But, yes, I think that when using private_data the restoration is necessary: otherwise if you have multiple PDUs in one frame then an exception in one of the early PDUs will cause the private_data to be wrong when the next PDU is dissected. This is one of the reasons not to use private_data at all.
Would it be safer and easier to maintain if this was instead done within call_dissector() and friends? ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
