Is anyone aware of an ITU specification using enumerated
values not in the root besides T.38? This code change is
in a generic prototcol handler, and could have unintended
consequences. I am willing to believe I am wrong, I am
just looking for an ITU document which clarifies whether
the extended values should be encoded on a byte boundary.

Hi,
it seems that it was implemented by me (rev 17530, March 2006) but I do not remember why.
I will fix it.
Tomas

Hi,
After reading your previous post on the subject I did a quick check Of the ITU spec and it looks like you are right...I'm not sure why the Check is there - Tomas? Ronny?

Ämne: [Wireshark-dev] ASN.1 enumeration extension coding question
Hi,
Is this the proper forum to ask a question about 'why' something is coded the way it is?
We are developing a V.34 enabled T.38 end point, and are confused by the Wireshark decoding. It seems the Wireshark decoder is aligning fields which are extension values. For example, the 2002 T.38 ASN.1 notation for V.34 Data Field values. We are not aligning these enumeration values, but Wireshark does. See line 1211 of packet-per.c, a comment which says to align without giving a reference, and 1214 which does the alignment. Reading ITU X.691 section 13, I would not expect this beahvior. As Wireshark community is the only place I know of an existing product which handles the V.34 additions to T.38, it seems a good place to ask. Why are these values aligned? We could not find an ITU reference giving us reason to do so.
Thanks,
