Dissectors themselves can't have UI, but.. > Ideally, if the plugin is present then the "Statistics" menu would > have another menu item to open the UI. ...that'd be implemented via a tap, which is a separate piece of code from a dissector, although the dissector does queue up work for a tap. > Are there any suggestions/existing examples of such plugins? See, for example, the epan/dissectors/packet-afp.c dissector, the gtk/ afp_stat.c tap (for providing GUI statistics for AFP in Wireshark), and the tap-afpstat.c tap (for providing command-line statistics for AFP in TShark). Dissectors and taps can both be plugins. See, for example, plugins/ stats_tree for a plugin tap. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
