Although most wireshark plugin tutorials tell you to develop
your plugin inside the wireshark source code,
it it possible to develop a plugin in a separate directory.

I have created a simple template and a corresponding
makefile for cmake to develop a plugin in a separate,
external directory, link it to the installed wireshark
library and install it to a wireshark plugin directory.

You can find the template (and some basic instructions)
on gitorious:

https://gitorious.org/wireshark-dissector-template/pages/Home

I haven't looked at the template, but I did just notice bug1199 and thought how
the goals seem to be the same.  Maybe you want to have a look at it and see how
it compares to your template?  Keep in mind that the patch was submitted quite
awhile ago, so it's likely out of date by now.
