| I’ve submitted change 25398 for this.
Hi, I’m working on a solution, basically moving the plugin.c rule in an intermediate Makefile.am.inc in plugins/epan, plugins/wiretap, plugins/codecs. When it works I’ll push it as a separate change. Thanks, Jaap On 19 Jan 2018, at 12:10, João Valverde <joao.valverde@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Right, well done on the analysis. The make-plugin-reg.py script wants to be passed "plugin_wtap" for wiretap.

If the plugin is loaded I don't see how the build system could have any

Hi João,
That was what puzzled met too...
I started to dig down further and found that indeed the plugin was loaded
(obviously) and they are called to register their registration function, as
provided by the generated plugin.c.
#1 is the plugin.c file generated in the autotools build, and
#2 is the plugin.c file generated in the cmake build
Looking at #1 versus #2 shows that #1 has an empty plugin_register() function,
while #2 has the correct wtap_register_plugin() call.
plugin.c generation is controlled by the build system, so that is the cause of
the difference between the two. Generation of #1 comes from a generic
Makefile.am.inc, which is geared to generating 'plugin' (being dissector
plugin!), while the CMakeLists.txt file calls for generating a 'plugin_wtap'.
So, the generation of #1 for the other kinds of plugin (!dissector) has to be
reconsidered.
Thanks,
Jaap
