[shreejith bl <shreejithbl@xxxxxxxxx>]

The issue is solved.
I was trying to build plugin without building the wireshark from source. That might be a reason, but not sure.
Though wireshark build failed, I was able to build the plugin. I guess the wireshark build would have generated proper config.h file.

Thanks for you help in advance,
Shreejith

The error is shown below, please let me know if somebody have some idea about this.

WS_VAR_IMPORT isn't defined. It's defined in config.h in the top-level
Wireshark directory.

Do you have the following as the first include in your plugin
(packet-boa.c) ?

#ifdef HAVE_CONFIG_H
# include "config.h"
#endif
