can be put, and a pointer to the string for the column, which might or
might not point to that buffer.
Add a routine "col_set_str()", which sets the string for the column to
the string passed to it as an argument; it should only be handed a
static string (a string constant would be ideal). It doesn't do any
copying, so it's faster than "col_add_str()".
Make the routines that append to columns check whether the pointer to
the string for the column points to the buffer for the column and, if
not, copy the string for the column to the buffer for the column so that
you can append to it (so you can use "col_set_str()" and then use
"col_append_str()" or "col_append_fstr()").
Convert a bunch of "col_add_str()" calls that take a string constant as
an argument to "col_set_str()" calls.
Convert some "col_add_fstr()" calls that take a string constant as the
only argument - i.e., the format string doesn't have any "%" slots into
which to put strings for subsequent arguments to "col_set_str()" calls
(those calls are just like "col_add_str()" calls).
Replace an END_OF_FRAME reference in a tvbuffified dissector with a

dissector call it through a handle, and make it static.
Give "dissect_data()" an "offset" argument, so dissectors can use it to
dissect part of the packet without having to cook up a new tvbuff.

being a global function.
The HTTP dissector should set "pinfo->current_proto" to HTTP even if we
consider the packet to be IPP, so that if we run past the end of a
tvbuff while dissecting HTTP stuff it's reported as a problem with HTTP,
not IPP.

string formatter, like "format_text()", and, as "tvbuff.c" now calls it
(*vide infra*), we don't want to have to make "tvbuff.c" drag "packet.h"
in just to declare "bytes_to_str()". It's now declared in "strutil.h",
so include it in modules that use "bytes_to_str()" and weren't already
including it.
Add a "tvb_bytes_to_str()" wrapper that calls "tvb_get_ptr()" to get a
pointer to a chunk of N bytes at a given offset in a tvbuff and then
hands that chunk to "bytes_to_str()". Convert the code that was doing
that to use "tvb_bytes_to_str()" instead (which caught what I suspect is
a bug in the Q.2931 dissector, where it was handing an offset of 0 to
"tvb_get_ptr()" - a cut-and-pasteo, I think).
Tvbuffify the ARP dissector.

Add "tvb_find_line_end()", to find a CR and/or LF-terminated line in a
tvbuff and return its length and the offset of the character after the
line end, for the use of those dissectors.
Add "tvb_strncaseeql()", which is like "tvb_strneql()" except that it
does a case-insensitive comparison.

the following:
It is now possible to enable/disable a particular protocol decoding
(i.e. the protocol dissector is void or not). When a protocol
is disabled, it is displayed as Data and of course, all linked
sub-protocols are disabled as well.
Disabling a protocol could be interesting:
- in case of buggy dissectors
- in case of wrong heuristics
- for performance reasons
- to decode the data as another protocol (TODO)
Currently (if I am not wrong), all dissectors but NFS can be disabled
(and dissectors that do not register protocols :-)
I do not like the way the RPC sub-dissectors are disabled (in the
sub-dissectors) since this could be done in the RPC dissector itself,
knowing the sub-protocol hfinfo entry (this is why, I've not modified
the NFS one yet).
Two functions are added in proto.c :
gboolean proto_is_protocol_enabled(int n);
void proto_set_decoding(int n, gboolean enabled);
and two MACROs which can be used in dissectors:
OLD_CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA(index, pd, offset, fd, tree)
CHECK_DISPLAY_AS_DATA(index, tvb, pinfo, tree)
See also the XXX in proto_dlg.c and proto.c around the new functions.

dissectors to be registered as dissectors for particular ports,
registered as heuristic dissectors, and registered as dissectors for
conversations, and have routines to be used both by old-style and
new-style dissectors to call registered dissectors.
Have the code that calls those dissectors translate the arguments as
necessary. (For conversation dissectors, replace
"find_conversation_dissector()", which just returns a pointer to the
dissector, with "old_try_conversation_dissector()" and
"try_conversation_dissector()", which actually call the dissector, so
that there's a single place at which we can do that translation. Also
make "dissector_lookup()" static and, instead of calling it and, if it
returns a non-null pointer, calling that dissector, just use
"old_dissector_try_port()" or "dissector_try_port()", for the same
reason.)
This allows some dissectors that took old-style arguments and
immediately translated them to new-style arguments to just take
new-style arguments; make them do so. It also allows some new-style
dissectors not to have to translate arguments before calling routines to
look up and call dissectors; make them not do so.
Get rid of checks for too-short frames in new-style dissectors - the
tvbuff code does those checks for you.
Give the routines to register old-style dissectors, and to call
dissectors from old-style dissectors, names beginning with "old_", with
the routines for new-style dissectors not having the "old_". Update the
dissectors that use those routines appropriately.
Rename "dissect_data()" to "old_dissect_data()", and
"dissect_data_tvb()" to "dissect_data()".

a particular type, rather than taking a varargs list, along the lines of
the "proto_tree_add_XXX_format()" routines.
Replace most calls to "proto_tree_add_item()" and
"proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" with calls to those routines.
Rename "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()" to
"proto_tree_add_item_old()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden_old()", and
add new "proto_tree_add_item()" and "proto_tree_add_item_hidden()"
routines that don't take the item to be added as an argument - instead,
they fetch the argument from the packet whose tvbuff was handed to them,
from the offset handed to them.

Add exceptions routines.
Convert proto_tree_add_*() routines to require tvbuff_t* argument.
Convert all dissectors to pass NULL argument ("NullTVB" macro == NULL) as
the tvbuff_t* argument to proto_tree_add_*() routines.
dissect_packet() creates a tvbuff_t, wraps the next dissect call in
a TRY block, will print "Short Frame" on the proto_tree if a BoundsError
exception is caught.
The FDDI dissector is converted to use tvbuff's.

UDP and into the handoff registration routines for the protocols in
question.
Make the dissectors for those protocols static if they're not called
outside the dissector's source file.
Get rid of header files if all they did was declare dissectors that are
now static; remove declarations of now-static dissectors from header
files that do more than just declare the dissector.

dynamically-assigned "ett_" integer values, assigned by
"proto_register_subtree_array()"; this:
obviates the need to update "packet.h" whenever you add a new
subtree type - you only have to add a call to
"proto_register_subtree_array()" to a "register" routine and an
array of pointers to "ett_", if they're not already there, and
add a pointer to the new "ett_" variable to the array, if they
are there;
would allow run-time-loaded dissectors to allocate subtree types
when they're loaded.
