If you are building on 0.99.4 the DON'T cut and hack the make file.
Simply edit the Makefile.common file by adding your plug-in name at the
top and putting the source and includes where indicated:
--------------------------------
# the name of the plugin
PLUGIN_NAME = foo

# the dissector sources (without any helpers)
DISSECTOR_SRC =           \
        foo.c

# corresponding headers
DISSECTOR_INCLUDES =      \
        foo.h
--------------------------------

You then should modify the moduleinfo.h file replacing the define for
yours. You might also want to adjust the version (shows up in About):
--------------------------------
#define PACKAGE "foo"
#define VERSION "0.0.1"
--------------------------------

You can also modify the AUTHORS and ChangeLog files:
--------------------------------
Authors :

--------------------------------

Compile the file from the same directory as the plugin (foo)
Here is the batch file I call from my editor
--------------------------------
@echo off
call VCVARS32.BAT
echo Make...
nmake -f Makefile.nmake
echo.
if not errorlevel 1 goto pass1
echo
************************************************************************
********
goto done
:pass1
echo Make OK
echo Copy...
copy /y foo.dll ..\0.99.4\foo.dll > nul
if not errorlevel 1 goto pass2
echo
************************************************************************
********
goto done
:pass2
echo Copy OK
:done
--------------------------------

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] What are nmake commands required to build
dissector

I have cut an pasted the Windows Makefile.nmake below from the developer
guide.
My dissector is the sample one from the guide, and I have stuck with the
name foo.
I think I have followed the edits in README.plugins correctly, but I am
not familiar with nmake and I get lost at section 4.

My questions are;
1. What command do I type at the command line to build the dissector
dll, and which directory should I be in when I type it ( I only want to
build the disssector as a plugin, I have built Wireshark from the source
and it works). ?
2. To get Wireshark to use the new dissector do I just need to put the
dll where the other dissector dlls are i.e. in
wireshark-gtk2\plugins\0.99.4 ?

TIA
Hal
