configure and use more than one set of preferences and configuration files.
This can be found in the "Configuration Profiles..." menu item from the Edit
menu, or by pressing Shift-Ctrl-A. It's also possible to start wireshark
and tshark with a named profile by using the "-C ProfileName" option.
A new status pane in the main window will show the current profile.
The configuration files currently stored in the Profiles are:
- Preferences
- Capture Filters
- Display Filters
- Coloring Rules
- Disabled Protocols
- User Accessible Tables
The recent data are by design not added to the profile.
Planned future enhancements:
- make a more convenient function to switch between profiles
- add a "clone profile" button to copy an existing profile
- make the profiles list active and accept return as OK
- save users "Decode as" in the profile
- make new, clone and deletion of profiles more secure
- make some of the recent values available in the profile
This patch also fixes:
- setting default status pane sizes
- a bug setting status pane for packets when not having main lower pane.

est. Use g_ascii_strcasecmp() and g_ascii_strncasecmp(), and supply our
own versions if they're missing from GLib (as is the case with GLib
1.x).
In the code to build the list of named fields for Diameter, don't use
g_strdown(); do our own g_ascii_-style upper-case to lower-case mapping
in the hash function and use g_ascii_strcasecmp() in the compare
function.
We do this because there is no guarantee that toupper(), tolower(), and
functions that use them will, for example, map between "I" and "i" in
all locales; in Turkish locales, for example, there are, in both
upper case and lower case, versions of "i" with and without a dot, and
the upper-case version of "i" is "I"-with-a-dot and the lower-case
version of "I" is "i"-without-a-dot. This causes strings that should
match not to match.
This finishes fixing bug 2010 - an earlier checkin prevented the crash
(as there are other ways to produce the same crash, e.g. a bogus
dictionary.xml file), but didn't fix the case-insensitive string matching.

The failures fall into two categories:
(1) Casts between pointers and 32-bit integers without an intermediary cast
via 'long' or 'unsigned long'. This results in a compiler warning complaining
about casts between a pointer and an integer of a different size.
(2) Passing values to "%lld" or similar printf-style format options that the
compiler thinks are a different size. Such values need to be cast to 'long

however these functions are called A LOT so there might be a performance hit when using emem with full debugging canary values and all the bells and whistles activated.
this change also makes any future attempt to parallellize dissection of frames easier if we just make the ep allocator allocate from a threads specific ep pool.

have plugin support. (Don't do so if we *do* have it, because if
"proto_init()" ever changes so that it doesn't use the argument even if
we have plugin support, we want a warning so we know that we should get
rid of that argument.)

tvb_get_string() - takes a tvbuff, an offset, and a length as
arguments, allocates a buffer big enough to hold a string with
the specified number of bytes plus an added null terminator
(i.e., length+1), copies the specified number of bytes from the
tvbuff, at the specified offset, to that buffer and puts in a
null terminator, and returns a pointer to that buffer (or throws
an exception before allocating the buffer if that many bytes
aren't available in the tvbuff);
tvb_get_stringz() - takes a tvbuff, an offset, and a pointer to
a "gint" as arguments, gets the size of the null-terminated
string starting at the specified offset in the tvbuff (throwing
an exception if the null terminator isn't found), allocates a
buffer big enough to hold that string, copies the string to that
buffer, and returns a pointer to that buffer and stores the
length of the string (including the terminating null) in the
variable pointed to by the "gint" pointer.
Replace many pieces of code allocating a buffer and copying a string
with calls to "tvb_get_string()" (for one thing, "tvb_get_string()"
doesn't require you to remember that the argument to
"tvb_get_nstringz0()" is the size of the buffer into which you're
copying the string, which might be the length of the string to be copied
*plus 1*).
Don't use fixed-length buffers for null-terminated strings (even if the
code that generates those packets has a #define to limit the length of
the string). Use "tvb_get_stringz()", instead.
In some cases where a value is fetched but is only used to pass an
argument to a "proto_tree_add_XXX" routine, use "proto_tree_add_item()"
instead.

value, just copy the specified number of bytes and stick a '\0' at the
end, don't use "tvb_get_nstringz0()" - yes, you end up copying more
bytes, but you don't have to bother looking for a '\0' that might not
even be present (if the string is null-padded rather than
null-terminated).
Also, set the length of the item to the specified length, rather than to
the length up to the terminating '\0' - if the string is null-padded,
the field should include all the padding bytes.

length (rather than being given -1), the length is, in most cases, the
maximum length of a null-*padded* string, rather than the actual length
of a null-*terminated* string. Treat it as such - allocate a buffer one
larger than the length (to leave room for a terminating '\0'), and pass
the size of that buffer to "tvb_get_nstringz0()". (Otherwise, in those
cases, the last character of the string is chopped off.)
Allow "proto_tree_add_string()" to add FT_STRINGZ items to the protocol
tree, as well as FT_STRING items.
In "alloc_field_info()", if we're passed a length of -1 and the field is
an FT_STRINGZ, don't make the length be the length remaining in the
tvbuff; that way, you *can* use a length of -1 in
"proto_tree_add_item()" for an FT_STRINGZ item, and have it get the
actual length by looking for the terminating '\0'.
(We might want to distinguish between null-terminated and null-padded
strings, e.g. with an FT_STRINGZPAD type. Null-terminated strings
rarely, if ever, have a specified length; the length is found by
scanning for the terminating '\0'. Null-padded strings presumably
always have a specified length, which is the length to which the string
is padded.)

Things can happen if we pass a zero buffer length to tvb_get_nstringz0().
Throw an exception if this happens.
In various dissectors make sure the tvb_get_nstringz0()'s buffer length
is greater than zero.
