I did some digging into how the WireShark UI exports things and found a
better way to write to disk:
guint8* ExtractedBytes;
int fp;
fp = ws_open("c:\\test.der", O_WRONLY|O_CREAT|O_TRUNC|O_BINARY, 0777);
ExtractedBytes = (guint8*)ep_tvb_memdup(tvb, offset, cert_length);
ws_write(fp, ExtractedBytes, cert_length);
ws_close(fp);
Now that I use ws_open and ws_write the bytes written to the disk match
exactly with what I see in the UI.
Thanks,

fwrite(tvb, tvb_length(tvb), 1, fp);
Unfortunately, when I check the resulting file in a hex editor the
bytes don't match up with what I see in the WireShark UI.
In the UI I see (Partial):
16 03 01 00 39 02 00 00 35 03 01 51 a2 28 a1 19 75 ae ac 53 4f 36 a8
81 62 48
In the File I see (Partial):
f0 a5 05 05 d0 6b fa 04 01 00 00 00 01 00 00 00 00 00 00 00 70 6e fa
04 d0 6b
I checked the end of the file to see if the bytes were 'backwards'
and they are not. I'm not quite sure what to do now- am I missing
something obvious?

SUBJECT: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Extract bytes from a tvbuff_t
fwrite(extracted, sizeof(extracted), 1, file)
extracted is a pointer so sizeof(extracted) is the size of pointers
on
your platform. Often 4 on 32-bit platforms and 8 on 64-bit.
You need something like this :
fwrite(extracted, tvb_get_length(tvb, 0), 1, file)

Hi,
I'm trying to extract raw bytes from a tvbuff_t and am not having
much luck.
As a simple test I have code which tries to extract the bytes and
write it
to a file. When I compile and run I get an output file with only 4
bytes in
it when I know there is more (extracting certificates).
Here is what I've got. Any help is appreciated:
guint8* extracted = (guint8*)ep_tvb_memdup(tvb, 0, -1);
fwrite(extracted, size of extracted), 1, file);
It's been awhile since I used c file io, and I'm pretty new to
Wireshark
dev. I may be missing obvious or going about this in the wrong
fashion.
