Thanks for help so far!
I'm now able to find the nodes, but not yet the field information. My code
looks like following (where hfinformation is the return value of routine
proto_registrar_byname("rtp.ssrc"):
static guint32 process_node(proto_item *ptree_node, header_field_info
*hfinformation) {
field_info *finfo;
proto_item *proto_sibling_node;
finfo = PITEM_FINFO(ptree_node);
if (hfinformation==(finfo->hfinfo)) {
call the function to get the rtp.ssrc value
return (this ssrc value);
}
proto_sibling_node = g_node_next_sibling(ptree_node);
if (proto_sibling_node)
process_node(proto_sibling_node, hfinformation);
else
return (-1);
}
The routine now loops between nodes: Frame->Ethernet->Internet Protocol->and
upper layer protocols. How can I get the items or list of one node, let's say
rtp?
Thanks for any advice, Miha.
