I was thinking in the direction of Wine, but I'll followed your
recommendation and tried to do it with the Developer's Guide.
Building works fine, actually *using* the plugin/binary doesn't. I have
tried two possible situations and they both have been a topic in this
mailing list earlier. However I wasn't able to find an answer in the
archive.
1) My compiled binary + my compiled DLL
My plugin is listed in the About->Plugins section. Capturing fails
however. First a "Can't get list of Wireless interfaces: <some weird
characters>" appears. I "OK" that away and try to start the capture
anyway, but the application crashes. Important note: I get the exact same
behaviour (apart from the plugin list) when I build using the original
code only.
2) Precompliled binary + my compiled DLL
When I start the binary, I get a "The specified module could not be
found." message. I have added the .manifest file and tried the "personal"
as well as the "system" plugin folders.
