I am doing the same way, but i am getting lot of errors with wireshark
libraries like

/export/qdserver/wireshark/wireshark-1.4.7/epan/tfs.h:39: error: expected
constructor, destructor, or type conversion before const

u have any idea abt this type of error ? i am using g++ compiler and
wireshark 1.4.7 libraries.

Well, the obvious answer is to use the gcc compiler instead of g++ and write in C instead of C++.  

If that won't work for you for some reason, you need to modify your C++ code.  The compiler message you've shown is 
complaining about a typedef'd struct declaration not being a proper C++ object.  That same complaint will be made about 
EVERY such struct in wireshark that your code uses, either directly or indirectly, unless you tell your code that your 
included files are C and not C++.  See http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lite/mixing-c-and-cpp.html for details about 
how to do this.
