Re: [Ethereal-dev] MPEG2 TS dissector

Nice, some questions though

Why do you need a define to specify the byte order? You are not taking
a poitner using tvb_get_ptr() and casting it into a pointer to s
tructure and accessing the structure fields directly that way are you?
  You should read all fields using tvb_get_[n|le]to[hs] and similar.
We support many platforms and compilers so we can not make guarantees
on how a particular platform/compiler lays out structures in memory.

There are many tvb_get_ptr() calls. Are these necessary?
