Hi all,

I'm beginner in Wireshark plugin development.
As Valentin said in a previous mail (http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/200803/msg00285.html), I also need to develop an AFDX plugin. I am interested in the solution explained in this URL, to add a heuristic dissector, but I have some questions:

Does using a heuristic dissector suppose I don't need to modify the ETH dissector, and only create my own one as a plugin? In this case, where do I add the line "heur_dissector_add(“eth”, dissect_afdx, proto_afdx);" ?=> Does the structure of my plugin change with this kind of call?

How can I fetch the MAC address from data inside the ETH, to scan it?

May I reuse the ETH packet analysis (length, type of protocol encapsulated, trailer...) automatically?

What must I do in my plugin in order to use the IP plugin after? (i.e. I wish to have frame:afdx:ip:udp:other)

Thanks a lot for your answers!

Yvan
