than a pointer to a dissector function, as an argument.
This means that the conversation dissector is called through
"call_dissector()", so the dissector itself doesn't have to worry about
checking whether the protocol is enabled or setting
"pinfo->current_proto", so get rid of the code that does that in
conversation dissectors. Also, make the conversation dissectors static.
Get rid of some direct calls to dissectors; replace them with calls
through handles, and, again, get rid of code to check whether a protocol
is enabled and set "pinfo->current_proto" where that code isn't needed.
Make those dissectors static if they aren't already static.
Add a routine "create_dissector_handle()" to create a dissector handle
without registering it by name, if the dissector isn't used outside the
module in which it's defined.

of protocol-id-plus-datum pairs, so that multiple protocols can attach
information to the same conversation.
Dissectors that attach information to a conversation should not assume
that if they find a conversation it has one of its data attached to it;
the conversation might've been created by another dissector.

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.

- add <stdarg.h> or <varargs.h> in snprintf.h
and remove those inclusions in the other #ifdef NEED_SNPRINTF_H codes
- remove the check of multiple inclusions in source (.c) code
(there is a bit loss of _cpp_ performance, but I prefer the gain of
code reading and maintenance; and nowadays, disk caches and VM are
correctly optimized ;-).
- protect all (well almost) header files against multiple inclusions
- add header (i.e. GPL license) in some include files
- reorganize a bit the way header files are included:
First:
#include <system_include_files>
#include <external_package_include_files (e.g. gtk, glib etc.)>
Then
#include "ethereal_include_files"
with the correct HAVE_XXX or NEED_XXX protections.
- add some HAVE_XXX checks before including some system header files
- add the same HAVE_XXX in wiretap as in ethereal
Please forgive me, if I break something (I've only compiled and regression
tested on Linux).
