3.8. Make changes to the Wireshark sources

As the Wireshark developers are working on many different platforms, a lot of editors are used to

develop Wireshark (emacs, vi, Microsoft Visual Studio and many many others). There's no "stand-

ard" or "default" development environment.

There are several reasons why you might want to change the Wireshark sources:

• add your own new dissector

• change/extend an existing dissector

• fix a bug

• implement a new glorious feature :-)

The internal structure of the Wireshark sources will be described in Part II, “Wireshark Develop-

ment (incomplete)”.

Tip!

Ask the developer mailing list before you really start a new development task. If

you have an idea what you want to add/change, it's a good idea to contact the de-

veloper mailing list (see Section 1.7.5, “Mailing Lists”) and explain your idea.

Someone else might already be working on the same topic, so double effort can be re-

duced, or someone can give you some tips that should be thought about (like side ef-

fects that are sometimes very hard to see).
