Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Help - Peculiar behavior with DLLs

Hi,
 
I have been developing under the latest development sources (1.1.3 svn), a plug-in dissector.
I compiled it to a dll – all fine.
 
When I add it to the “plugin” directory it all works fine (working with 1.1.3).
When I install 1.0.6 on a new machine (and add the dll to the “plugin” directory),
and run wireshark, the dll is not loaded and it is said that it is not configured right.
 
But, if I then install 1.1.3 (which I compiled during the development), uninstalls it and reinstalls 1.0.6 and add again the dll to the “plugin” directory –and run;
now the dll is loaded fine and also do what it suppose to.
 
What’s wrong? How can I avoid the install/uninstall of 1.1.3 on my new machines, in order the dll will work with 1.0.6?
 
Best regards,
 
Doron
