This mapping is working correctly. When looking at the VALUE_PAIR struct for the Framed-Protocol attribute, how do I determine that the contents of VALUE_PAIR_DATA data; are actually a string and not an integer without prior knowledge?

I am looking at request information in a C module I am working on, and there are various value_pairs such as Framed-Protocol who's type is PW_TYPE_INTEGER but the content is actually a string. It does have a value in the dictionary and I am guessing it is being mapped from this, but then shouldn't the type be PW_TYPE_STRING? Or am I just looking at this incorrectly?

It is mapped in the dictionary under heading: "Integer Translations". That string is a human readable translation of the integer that is the attribute value.

vp_prints_value did the trick, thanks On Mon, May 11, 2009 at 1:48 PM, Alan DeKok <aland@deployingradius.com>wrote:

vp->type

And Framed-Protocol is an integer type. See vp->vp_integer.

This should all be very clear from the existing code. Simply grep the code for PW_FRAMED_PROTOCOL, or PW_TYPE_INTEGER, and see what it does.
