Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] [Wireshark-users] bit operations are missingfrom lua bindings?

["Anders Broman" <anders.broman@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
Couldn't:

tvb_get_bits8() 
tvb_get_bits16() 
tvb_get_bits32() 
tvb_get_bits64()
 
Be used instead? 
There is also proto_tree_add_bits_item() and proto_tree_add_bits_ret_val()
Regards
Anders
