[RFC] Vendor-specific dissector extension for EtherNet/IP

[Samuel Groot <groot.samuel () gmail com>]

Hi,

I am considering writing a chained dissector in lua to support some 
vendor-specific classes, services and attributes for EtherNet/IP.

After digging around on google or ask.wireshark.org, I couldn't find 
anything that would fit my needs (except this[1], but it's more than 10 
years old), so I'm coming to you to have maybe some advice.

Vendor-specifics in EtherNet/IP are particular in the sense that we need 
to rewrite certain things in the tree and only re-parse certain things.

Is it the correct way to do it, or do I have to patch 
epan/dissectors/packet-cip.c and rebuild wireshark entirely?

Regards,
Sam Groot
