Hi,

   While writing a dissector plugin I've noticed that ftype_length()
function is declared without WS_DLL_PUBLIC (in epan/ftypes/ftypes.h).

Is that intended one?

Well, presumably it's not exported because nobody has ever needed to use it outside of libwireshark before.

If you have a use, you could push a change to Gerrit to export it (or you could ask and someone here might do it for you).
