Hello ,

I'd like you to clear up to me what follows :) :

Suppose we have 4 packets (A & A1 are corralated and so are B & B1)

A -----B----A1------B1

As my plugin 'sees' A it starts a conversation and attaches some data to it .
My plugin does the same with B.

Now, when A1 is sniffed the dissector tries to find a conversation but, if i m not wrong, B conversation is retrieved. I know that there's a field next in conversation structure but I'm not sure when and how to use it. Reading README.developer I think I'd better use 'conversation with index'. Are there any other (or simpler) ways to retrieve the proper conversation?

Thank you
