Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Including sharkd in the installation downloads

Hi,

I guess it is just a matter of doing a section for sharkd in the Wireshark.nsi file similar to tshark?

 

:

  !insertmacro MUI_DESCRIPTION_TEXT ${SecTShark} "Text based network protocol analyzer."

:

Section "TShark" SecTShark

;-------------------------------------------

SetOutPath $INSTDIR

File "${STAGING_DIR}\tshark.exe"

File "${STAGING_DIR}\tshark.html"

SectionEnd

 

Regards

Anders

Subject: [Wireshark-dev] Including sharkd in the installation downloads

 

Hi,

 

There is a tremendous push for automation at work, and I'm sure other enterprises have the same aspirations.  Sharkd provides all the power of Wireshark dissection and filtering in a way that can easily be driven by an automation script.

 

It's quite difficult to get permission to instal Wireshark, and there is zero chance of us being allowed to build a copy from source.  I'm sure similar restrictions apply to many in large organisations.

 

Is it possible to include sharkd in the installers?

 

Best regards...Paul
