Hi,

If your dissector is a single dissector file, possibly with include file, it might be better to include in libwireshask. Therefore you'll need to move your dissector to epan/dissectors and add it's name to epan/dissectors/Makefile.common. Just like README.developers tells you. The extra stuff described in README.plugins can be omitted.

Thanx,
Jaap


Basically

Hello,
I'm nearly ready to submit my first dissector. Currently, I have the dissector set up as a plug-in. However, after reading I've found out that the community usually prefers a build-in dissector. How do I go about making this change?
