I am testing some network packets of my Organisation's product. We already have custom plugins. I am trying to add some some more fields into those existing plugins (like conversion of 2 byte code to a string and assign it to a field)
Thankyou in advance for reading my query.

Wireshark version : 2.4.5 (organization's plugins dont work on latest wireshark application)

Problem statement:
I am able to add field and show value, but fieldname is not displayed as defined.
I cannot share the entire .lua file but i will try to explain What i did:
Below is the image where I have a field aprint.type. this is a two byte field. In .lua file, for display purpose it is appended with corresponding description using a custom function int_to_enum.
I want to add one more proto field aprint.typetext which will show the text.
What I did:
Added a protofield f_apr_msg_type_txt = ProtoField.string("aprint.typetxt","aprint_type_text") (Tried f_apr_msg_type_txt = ProtoField.string("aprint.typetxt","aprint_type_text",FT_STRING) also)
Below the code where subtree aprint.type is shown, added my required field as subtree:add(f_apr_msg_type_txt, msg_type_string) (Below is image of code extract)
I am able to see the text but field Name is shown as Wireshark Lua text (_ws.lua.text)
Normally displaying strings based on numeric values is accomplished by a value string lookup, so you'd have something like so:
local aprint_type_vals = {
[1] = "Foo",
[2] = "Bar",
[9] = "State alarm"
}
f_apr_msg_type = ProtoField.uint16("aprint.type", "Type", base.DEC, aprint_type_vals)
f_apr_msg_type_txt = ProtoField.string("aprint.typetxt","aprint_type_text", base.ASCII)
... then
local msg_type = tvb(offset, 2):le_uint()
subtree:add_le(f_apr_msg_type, tvb(offset, 2))
subtree:add(f_apr_msg_type_txt, tvb(offset, 2), (aprint_type_vals[msg_type] or "Unknown"))
--[[
Alternatively:
subtree:add(f_apr_msg_type_txt, tvb(offset, 2)):set_text("aprint_type_text: " .. (aprint_type_vals[msg_type] or "Unknown"))
--]]
I'm also not sure why you need the extra field with only the text when the text is already displayed with the existing field, but that's basically how you'd do it.

I have points from my Input like these two:
http,Location=Foo Key="Humidity",Value=68 1659704523000000000
http,Location=Foo Key="Temperature",Value=24,1 1659704523000000000
But I have to store them like these:
http,Location=Foo Humidity=68 1659704523000000000
http,Location=Foo Temperature=24,1 1659704523000000000
I saw almost all of Processor plugin docs, but I still not sure it is possible to use field value as a field name. Isn't it?

Yep! The starlark processor will do this. The 'pivot' example is what you are after.
The following will create a new field based on the values of Key and Value and then remove the original values:
[[processors.starlark]]
source = '''
def apply(metric):
metric.fields[str(metric.fields['Key'])] = metric.fields['Value']
metric.fields.pop('Key',None)
metric.fields.pop('Value',None)
return metric
'''
I am trying to get the values in "ID" column of DOORS and I am currently doing this
string ostr=richtext_identifier(o)
When I try to print ostr, in some modules I get just the ID(which is what I want). But in other modules I will get values like "{\rtf1\ansi\ansicpg1256\deff0\nouicompat{\fonttbl{\f0\fnil\fcharset0 Times New Roman;}{\f1\froman\fcharset0 Times New Roman;}} {*\generator Riched20 10.0.17134}\viewkind4\uc1 \pard\f0\fs20\lang1033 SS_\f1\fs24 100\par } " This is the RTF value and I am wondering what the best way is to strip this formatting and get just the value.
Perhaps there is another way to go about this that I am not thinking of as well. Any help would be appreciated.
So the ID column of DOORS is actually a composite- DOORS builds it out of the Module level attribute 'Prefix' and the Object level attribute 'Absolute Number'.
If you wish to grab this value in the future, I would do the following (using your variables)
string ostr = ( module ( o ) )."Prefix" o."Absolute Number" ""
This is opposed to the following, which (despite seeming to be a valid attribute in the insert column dialog) WILL NOT WORK.
string ostr = o."Object Identifier" ""
Hope this helps!
Comment response: You should not need the module name for the code to work. I tested the following successfully on DOORS 9.6.1.10:
Object o = current
string ostr = ( module ( o ) )."Prefix" o."Absolute Number" ""
print ostr
Another solution is to use the identifier function, which takes an Object as input parameter, and returns the identifier as a plain (not RTF) string:
Declaration
string identifier(Object o)
Operation
Returns the identifier, which is a combination of absolute number and module prefix, of object o as a string.
The optimal solution somewhat depends on your underlying requirement for retrieving the object ID.
Good afternoon everyone,
My problem is that I have 2 XML lists
<List1> <Agency>String</Agency> </List1>
and
<List2><Agency2>String</Agency2><List2>.
In Lua I need to create a program which is parsing this list and when the user inputs a matching string from List 1 or List 2, the program needs to actually confirm to the user if the string belongs to either L1 or L2 or if the string is inexistent. I'm new to Lua and to programming generally speaking and I would be very grateful for you answers. I have LuaExpat as a plugin but I can't seem to be able to actually read from file, I can only do some beginner tricks if the xml list is written in the code. At a later time this small program will be fed by an RSS.
require("lxp")
local stuff = {}
xmldata="<Top><A/> <B a='1'/> <B a='2'/><B a='3'/><C a='3'/></Top>"
function doFunc(parser, name, attr)
if not (name == 'B') then return end
stuff[#stuff+1]= attr
end
local xml = lxp.new{StartElement = doFunc}
xml:parse(xmldata)
xml:close()
print(stuff[3].a)
This code is a tutorial over the web that works, everything is just fine it prints nr. 3. Now I want to know how to do that from an actual file, as if I input io.read:(file, "r" or "rb" ) under xmldata variable and run the same thing it returns either empty space or nil.
I have realize that the SaveImage() command uses the last the last type of format that has been selected during normal DM operation. I assume that this option is selected somewhere in the GobalInfo tags. Please, could someone tell me which tag I have to modify to select dm4 format when I use SaveImage()?
'SaveImage()' is just a convenience wrapper. It is generally not the
Image which is saved to file, but an ImageDocument which can contain one ore more images. The latest DigitalMicograph help
documentation is more detailed about loading/saving than previous
ones, so I'm just copy-pasting the according passages below:
For example to store the front-most displayed image(document) as DM images, you may use:
string name = "C:\\TempImg"
string handler = "Gatan 3 Format"
ImageDocument doc = GetFrontImageDocument()
doc.ImageDocumentSaveToFile( handler, name )
And you can always get the ImageDocument from any image, using:
string handler = "Gatan 3 Format"
image img := RealImage("Test - not yet shown", 4, 100, 100 )
string name = "C:\\" + img.GetName()
ImageDocument doc = img.ImageGetOrCreateImageDocument()
doc.ImageDocumentSaveToFile( handler, name )
I am working from this example: http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/#remote and I am encoding the output like this:
$rows = array();
while($r = mysql_fetch_assoc($category_result))
{
$rows[] = $r;
error_log ("rows: ".$rows[0]);
}
echo json_encode($rows);
But the dropdown on the other side shows nothing. Here is my test page: http://problemio.com/test.php - if you enter "ho" it matches 2 results in the database, but they are not getting displayed for some reason. Any idea why?
Thanks!!
The properties should be named label and value. From the JQuery UI demo page you linked to:
The local data can be a simple Array of Strings, or it contains
Objects for each item in the array, with either a label or value
property or both. The label property is displayed in the suggestion
menu.
So you would need to rename category_name to label either in PHP or later on in your JavaScript source handler function. The latter would require you to replace the PHP URL with a callback function like in the remote example. That way you could get the data any way you want (e.g. by jQuery.getJSON()) and work with it before it gets handed over to the suggestion box.
Hope this helps.
Regarding your comment, this should do it:
$rows = array();
while ($r = mysql_fetch_array($category_result)) {
$rows[] = array("label" => $r["category_name"]);
}
echo json_encode($rows);
