Ethereal-dev: Re: [Ethereal-dev] how to access a global variable defined in wiretap(new format
The best way in my opinion will be to pass such infromation through the pseudo_header defined for your format.
Will this be an entire trace file specific property or one that varies for each packet in the file?
Thanks,
Ravi.

hi
I have written a new capture format(dec-trace)
which reads from saved file & corresponding dissector.
Since dec-trace can be in either of big/little
format. so i want to pass this global variable from wiretap (where it will read
endian type) to epan/dissector (where value of this variable will be read
by dissector & based on that decoding will take place).
It was workign on linux platform very
well,
but as i building the same on Windows platform
using msvc it is showing linking problem. unresolved reference.
/******************** I m not sure but this could
be the reason ***********/
When i tried to go in deep it could be b'cos of
dissector.lib. since linker tries to resolves it within dissector.lib.
/**************************************************************************************/
what could be the way access global variable
defined in wiretap ?
