The Wireshark Developer's Guide for Wireshark 2.1 in Chapter 9.2 provides
guidance regarding creating a basic C dissector.
Example 9.2 shows the use of create_dissector_handle. This function is
deprecated to new_create_dissector_handle, and in fact is no longer available
in the build detailed above.
Similarly, Example 9.4 shows a dissector function with a void return. This is
no longer valid as the dissector should return an int value reflecting the
bytes consumed.
There are other related errors in Example 9.8, 9.11 and possibly 9.20.
Best regards...Paul
