Hey guys,
i hope someone has an idea about my problem with the tonumber() function is
Problem:
I want to convert number that come from a text file that is loaded inside a dissector. On one PC with the current 4.2.6 release (also happening with 4.2.5) the basic code work, on the other one the result of the tonumber() function is nil
Test code:
local a = "-15.687"
local b = tonumber(a)
print("a " .. a)
print("b " .. b)
Below i copied the info on the about window from wireshark (both pc just got the newly release 4.2.6 installed)
