Change from Thomas Wittwer to register HTTP dissector by name, for other

2001-09-04T01:01:48+00:00

dissectors to call.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=3905

From Joerg Mayer: explicitly fill in all members of a

2001-06-18T02:18:27+00:00

"header_field_info" structure, including the ones that are later set by
the routines to register fields.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=3561

Remove more "CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA()" calls and "pinfo->current_proto ="

2001-01-22T08:54:08+00:00

statements.

Move the setting of the Protocol column in various dissectors before
anything is fetched from the packet, and also clear the Info column at
that point in those and some other dissectors, so that if an exception
is thrown, the columns don't reflect the previous protocol.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=2932

Provide a way by which protocols that run atop HTTP, such as IPP, can

2001-01-11T06:30:54+00:00

register their port as being for XXX-over-HTTP; the HTTP dissector
registers that port in the "tcp.port" table as an HTTP port, and
registers it in its *own* table with the dissector and protocol provided
to it.

Parse the HTTP MIME headers regardless of whether we're building a
protocol tree or not; we have to do so in order to find the offset of
the payload, to hand to an XXX-over-HTTP dissector.

"dissect_http()" doesn't need to be global any more; make it static.

2001-01-11T05:41:47+00:00

svn path=/trunk/; revision=2870

There's no need to register port 631 twice for IPP; do so only once.

2001-01-11T05:36:09+00:00

Leave notes for a future rethinking of the way we handle protocols that
run atop HTTP.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=2869

Add an additional "protocol index" argument to "{old_}dissector_add()",

2001-01-09T06:32:10+00:00

"{old_}heur_dissector_add()", "{old_}conv_dissector_add()", and
"register_dissector()", so that an entry in those tables has associated
with it the protocol index of the protocol the dissector handles (or -1,
if there is no protocol index for it).

This is for future use in a number of places.

(Arguably, "proto_register_protocol()" should take a dissector pointer
as an argument, but

	1) it'd have to handle both regular and heuristic dissectors;

	2) making it take either a "dissector_t" or a union of that and
	   a "heur_dissector_t" introduces some painful header-file
	   interdependencies

so I'm punting on that for now.  As with other Ethereal internal APIs,
these APIs are subject to change in the future, at least until Ethereal
1.0 comes out....)

svn path=/trunk/; revision=2849

Have "proto_register_protocol()" build a list of data structures for

2001-01-03T06:56:03+00:00

protocols, in addition to adding structures to the list of filterable
fields.  Give it an extra argument that specifies a "short name" for the
protocol, for use in such places as

	pinfo->current_proto;

	the dialog box for constructing filters;

	the preferences tab for the protocol;

and so on (although we're not yet using it in all those places).

Make the preference name that appears in the preferences file and the
command line for the DIAMETER protocol "diameter", not "Diameter"; the
convention is that the name in question be all-lower-case.

Make some routines and variables that aren't exported static.

Update a comment in the ICP dissector to make it clear that the
dissector won't see fragments other than the first fragment of a
fragmented datagram.

Support for HTTP methods added by GENA (the uPnP protocol), and for the

2001-01-03T03:40:29+00:00

HTTP-based SSDP protocol, from David Hampton.

svn path=/trunk/; revision=2808

Initialize "http_type" to HTTP_OTHERS before calling

2000-11-21T22:40:40+00:00

"is_http_request_or_reply()", so that if "is_http_request_or_reply()"
decides the line is part of a request or a response it'll set "*type"
(which it does only if "*type" is HTTP_OTHERS).
