Short answer: edit the epan/dissectors/CMakeLists.txt file and reexecute
CMake.
Long answer: on top of the developer's guide, you should read the
documentation for in the doc folder of your source tree. In particular
README.developer and README.dissector give plenty of information, including
a description of the files to be modified to include a new dissector.

Best regards,
Pascal.
