Im developing an application which needs some features of wireshark-1.0.3.

Is ther a way to create wireshark library and link it with my application, so that i call subroutines from wireshark and use it in my application ??

There's a libwireshark built as part of the Wireshark project; it supports the packet-dissecting feature of Wireshark - Wireshark and TShark, for example, call routines in that library to dissect packets.

What features of Wireshark do you need?
