Hi David, Le mer. 19 févr. 2020 à 17:47, Boyce, David <David.Boyce () viasat com> a écrit :Hi, I notice that the developer’s guide does not appear to have any Wireshark C API Reference Manual equivalent to the Lua API Reference Manual of Chapter 11. Given that 1.4.1 emphasises that ‘(almost) any dissector is written in plain old ANSI C’, this seems to be a strange omission. Is there a good reason for this?You have a lot of documentation in the doc/ folder of the Wireshark source code. I guess the fact that it is located here and not in the developer's guide is a mix of legacy and that, to build a C dissector, you need to have Wireshark source code anyway (which is not the case for Lua).
We have some documentation generated from the source tree by Doxygen. It was a bit challenging to find it, it does not appear to be linked from the website or source tree. Anyway, here it is: https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsar_html/modules.html -- Kind regards, Peter Wu https://lekensteyn.nl ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
