hi folks,

i finally got my own plugin running (compiled with Microsoft Visual C++ 
2008 Express Edition -> MSVC2008EE). because it's ment to be 
distributed to some colleagues later, i've included the manifest info 
(mt.exe –manifest my_plugin.dll.manifest 
-outputresource:my_plugin.dll;2). infortunately, a test on an other 
workstation with the newest wireshark (1.0.4) installed only (so no 
Visual Studio or something like that) led to the following error:

"Couldn't load module: C:\Program 
Files\Wireshark\plugins\1.0.4\my_plugin.dll: This application has 
failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. 
Reinstalling the application may fix this problem."

in the mail archive i've read a lot of problems when not using 
Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 so i did the whole process again with the 
MSVC2005 variant, included the manifest and tried it on the previously 
mentioned workstation. and it worked, which is nice, but i'd like to 
know if it's possible to copy/paste plugins compiled with the 
MSVC2008EE variant into a "normal user" (not developer) wireshark 
directory?

when not, then why does the developer guide 
(http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html/#ChSetupWin32) suggests to 
download the Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition?

thanks for an enlightenment
lukas
