Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] custom plugin dll - can it be dropped into another WS instal

I build a dissector plugin dll on the 1.0.4 source.

Should I be able to just give someone who has installed WS 1.0.4 my new
dll and it will work if they put it in their $(INSTALLDIR)\plugins\1.0.4
directory?  Because I tested that on my own system and it causes a
couple errors at startup, although WS will run I click through the
errors.
If it is possible what are the steps I need to take to get the dll to
work this way?

Attached jpgs show the errors.

Thanks Chris for your prompt reply to my earlier installer question.
