Re: Dissect using val_to_str from external file

Hi,
If I remember correctly there is a problem to use data between .dlls on Windows. You can copy the value string to your 
plugin I suppose.
Regards

Hello,

I did this now for the functions in my other question
(http://seclists.org/wireshark/2015/Nov/78) but I have no idea how to get this working for val_to_str() in my plugin 
file.

In my source file, i include <epan/ipproto.h> and Visual Studio does only complain at compile time about unresolved 
external symbols (LNK2001). Can someone please help me on how to access ipproto_val_ext from a plugin?

No plugin from the Wireshark sources seem to use external val_to_str() calls as of now.

Bye,
Jo
