Which protocols in the trace file are affected by the big/little
endian switch in the file header?

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 ?

Raman
