I am working on wireshark 1.7.0 (SVN from /trunk), so the ".so" file generated from "1.7.0" cannot be used on version "1.6.*" as wireshark plugin?
Short answer: correct Long answer: plugins are *upward* compatible within a major stable release (e.g. 1.4.x, 1.6.x) but not between major stable releases (1.4.x vs 1.6.x). Within unstable releases (1.5.x, 1.7.x) the API may change any time, so plugins may stop working even within the same major unstable release.

Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
