Are you developing a built-in or plug-in dissector? The built-in ones
are probably easier - you just have to add it to
epan/dissectors/Makefile.common and have one file in epan/dissectors/
for your dissector code. I usually start out using the sample dissector
code in README.developer between "Cut here" marks. If you're still
having trouble, attach your dissector code to an e-mail and one of us
can take a look at it.
