Procedure for converting a Corba idl file into an ethereal dissector
1.
To write the C code to stdout.
idl2eth
<your file.idl>
eg:
idl2eth echo.idl
2.
To write to a file, just redirect the output.
idl2eth echo.idl > packet-test-idl.c
You may wish to comment out the register_giop_user_module() code and that will leave you
with heuristic dissection.
If you don't want to use the shell script wrapper, then try steps 3 or 4 instead.
3.
To write the C code to stdout.
Usage: omniidl
-p ./ -b ethereal_be <your file.idl>
eg:
omniidl
-p ./ -b ethereal_be echo.idl
4.
To write to a file, just redirect the output.
omniidl
-p ./ -b ethereal_be echo.idl > packet-test-idl.c
You may wish to comment out the register_giop_user_module() code and that will leave you
with heuristic dissection.
5.
Copy the resulting C code to your ethereal src directory, edit the 2 make files to include the
packet-test-idl.c
cp packet-test-idl.c /dir/where/ethereal/lives/
edit Makefile.am
edit Makefile.nmake
6.
Run configure
./configure (or ./autogen.sh)
7.
Compile the code
make
8.
Good Luck !!
