Hi,
I'm writing a plugin for a custom protocol. The dissector portion is working fine, as is adding a tap for that protocol. I would now like to add a menu item to the statistics menu that allows me to show a window with extra info created by the tap. I can build with GTK in order to generate the window I want to create, but I'm having problems adding the menu item.
After looking through some of the code in
wireshark, I can see that I need to call
register_stat_menu_item in
order to create that menu item. With this in, the code compiles, but does not
link. I believe this is because I need to link the ui library that the
register_stat_menu_item method
is compiled into (libui.lib), but doing so raises a massive number of other
linker errors. This is the only method from the UI that I actually need to call
in the plugin, since everything else can be created and managed
separately.
Is there a way I can call that function from my plugin (even if it means manually calling the method by finding a pointer to it at runtime)?
Cheers
