Hi,

I am a newb to wireshark. We want to use Tshark for one of our projects
in following way:

 

1.      Create a packet file in pcap format.
2.      Call a function in Tshark giving the pcap file as input.
3.      Tshark will dissect the contents of pcap file.
4.      Take the output form Tshark function in form of a buffer and
then go on to use that information.

 

I would appreciate if someone can answer the following questions:

 

1.      Is it possible to create a .so (shared library) for Tshark so
that a function giving input in pcap file format could be called from
the shared library.
2.      If answer to above question is yes, which source files should I
look at? Do you know the entry point in this case?

 

I have downloaded Wireshark code, but am unable to build it on x86
Solaris platform. I tried first running autogen script but it complains
of having incorrect automake version. Are the following steps correct to
build Wireshark: 

1. Execute autogen script

2. Run configure 

3. make

 

I appreciate for your time and help.

Thanking You.

Regards,

Pavan
