Hi

I have developed a dissector .It has to be portable across PC's.I used the fallowing to compile wireshark
  1. visual studio 2005
  2. cygwin 1.7.1
  3. python31
  4. wireshark-1.0.10

The dissector works fine on the PC in which i compiled.
I installed wireshark-1.0.10 on another PC and placed the dll at both
C:\Documents and Settings\chiru reddy\Application Data\Wireshark\plugins and
C:\Program Files\Wireshark\plugins\1.0.10


But when i start wireshark it says
Couldn't load module C:\Program Files\Wireshark\plugins\1.0.10\xxx.dll: The specified module could not be found.

Please tell the suspected mistake/path to place.I am maintaining the version dependency


Thanks in advance
Chiranjeevi
