I am using proto_tree_add_float and tvb_get_letohieee_float in my

or plugin_* files. Is that correct?

I presume you have GCC installed?

You need to do "nmake -f Makefile.nmake Xass-list" to re-generate the X* files.

I've checked in a change to add the "proto_tree_add_float" routines, and the routines to fetch IEEE floating-point values, to libethereal.def and to the plugin API. If you're using the current SVN version, it should now (or shortly after now) have those routines in the X* files.
