Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Problems when changing a dissector preference

[Stig Bjørlykke <stig.bjorlykke@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi.

In the DMP dissector I build a hash_table with some SEQ/ACK analysis  
values the first time the package is dissected (when pinfo->fd- 
>flags.visited==FALSE).  This hash_table is deleted in the dissectors  
init routine.

When changing the udp port in the dissectors preferences, from an  
unknown port to the port used in the packages, the init routine for  
the dissector is called and all packages are reloaded with pinfo->fd- 
>flags.visited=TRUE.  This will not create my hash_table as expected,  
and the analysis values are not calculated.

Any idea how I should fix this?
