    Modifying the makefile?

    Now that I've modified the existing dissector in Wireshark I need to add my tap file to the project. Do I have to modify the makefile to include it in the build? Thanks.

    If you've added a .c file, then it would need to be compiled just like everything else, so you would have to add it to the makefile (anywhere you see a big pile of .c or .o files, that's the place to go).

    Found it, it looks like I just have to add it to a list of files in the Makefile.common file. Does this sound right?

    Yup, seems to have worked for now.
