I have the following error while compiling each time my dissector using
'make' command.

Couldn't really figure out what the problem is actually..
Any help is greatly appreciated.


Thanks and Regards,
Nilesh Nayak

So why do a plugin?  Just write a normal new dissector.

Regardless, the doc to read is this: doc/README.dissector

That explains a lot, in detail; and of course you should also look at some
existing packet-* files in epan/dissectors.  For UDP, packet-stun.c or
packet-ntp.c are a relatively small ones.

So, basically I want to build a basic wireshark dissector and try to
capture the packets using my own customised protocol name.
Example : I have a protocol of my own, lets name it as "foo" protocol.
Now, I want to create a dissector for it like packet-<protocolname>.c and
 packet-<protocolname>.h as source header files.

Underlying the protocol, I am capturing UDP packets. But if I set the
capture filter as "foo", then I should be able to capture "foo" packets.
Could you please send me some good tutorials over the same?

I have already read the README.developer and README.pluggins docs.


And yes, I am adding a new protocol dissector in the wireshark source
code itself and then building the environment and compiling.

Thanks and Regards,
Nilesh
