For me there is only one pidl and it's in the samba repository. Then we have a 2 big use case: * Samba * Wireshark By the way I take the chance of this thread to underline that it's very hard to get the attention of the wireshark developpers to actually push patches (much harder than the Samba actually ...).
Which bugnumber(s) are still open?
By the way it would be nice if other dev in wireshark understand the term "autogenerated" because I spotted on the packet-dcerpc-frsrpc.c not less than 5 manual changes since the last time ronnie pushed the last version of the regenerated file:
It works quite fine with asn2wrs generated, because that generator is in a maintained state, while it's hard to maintain the pidl dissector in Wireshark: While samba was still maintained via svn, I used to (every few weeks or months) sync the samba changes into Wireshark, including the commit history. As I didn't have the disk space at that time to keep a copy of the samba repo, I stopped doing that. I'd like to have a current and working pidl generator in the Wireshark sources again. Ciao Jörg PS: One thing I'd like to have is to have a comment with the command line used to generate the dissector like we do with asn2wrs. -- Joerg Mayer <jmayer () loplof de> We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
