Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] proto_tree -> proto_item

[Sébastien Tandel <sebastien@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

proto_item_set_text is meant to work with proto_item*

What do you mean by it compiles and works with a proto_tree*?

Could you describe what is not "working" when you're passing a proto_item*? Compilation error, which? other?

Regards,

Sebastien Tandel

the first parameter, but it's declared as requiring a proto_item*:
  extern void proto_item_set_text(proto_item *ti, .....);

Is some RTTI used, that translates proto_tree* to proto_item*? I didn't
find documentation about this.

And, most notably, is it legal for me to do that?

Thanks in advance,
Luca
