Re: plugin_if: plugin_if_goto_frame not changing packet detail

[Paul Offord <Paul.Offord () advance7 com>]

Hi Alex,

I’ll raise a bugtracker issue.

I just tried running wireshark-gtk.exe out of my debug directory.  My TCP service seemed to start OK and I was able to 
connect with Putty and get the welcome message.  When I typed in a frame number it echoed the number (which means it’s 
OK up to the plugin_if_goto_frame call but it then threw an exception.  I don’t think I have any Qt specific code in my 
program but it’s probably something I’ve done wrong.  I’ll try to debug later.

Best regards…Paul

Hi Paul,
I'm think it is a bug, can you create a issue on bugtracker ?
Do you have try also with Wireshark GTK ?
Regards,

Hi,

I've written a small TCP service that runs on a thread inside Wireshark. I use Putty to send a frame number to the 
service which then uses plugin_if_goto_frame to command Wireshark to jump to the frame number sent. It works fine 
except for one problem.

Although the correct frame is highlighted in the Packet List, the Packet Detail and Packet Bytes don't change to match 
the new frame number. I've recorded a short video of this which you can see at https://youtu.be/jUHuC_2rTcM

What do I need to do to get Wireshark to update the Packet Detail and Packet Bytes?
Thanks and regards...Paul
