I'm concerned about the requirements of the GPLv2 license.

If I write a plugin for Wireshark, which compiles to a plugin DLL only, and then I distribute the plugin DLL, am I required by the GPL license to distribute the source (and for anyone I distribute it to, they can redistribute the source even if I don't want them to)?

I'm wondering if I can legally distribute only the plugin DLL (and limit the distribution of it), and not distribute the source at all.
