class mobile_insight.monitor.dm_collector.dm_endec.ws_dissector.WSDissector

Bases: object

A wrapper class of the ws_dissector program, which calls libwireshark to dissect many types of messages, e.g. 3GPP standardized messages.

This wrapper communicates with the ws_dissector program using a trivial TLV-formatted protocol named AWW (Automator Wireshark Wrapper), through the standard input/output interfaces.

classmethod decode_msg(msg_type, b)

Decode a binary message of type msg_type.

Parameters

  • msg_type (string) – the type of the message to be decoded

  • b (string) – binary data to be decoded

Returns

an XML string

classmethod init_proc(executable_path, ws_library_path)

Launch the ws_dissector program. Must be called before any actual decoding, and should be called only once.

Parameters

  • executable_path (string or None) – path to ws_dissector. If set to None, uses the default path.

  • ws_library_path (string or None) – a directory that contains libwireshark. If set to None, uses the default path.
