在wireshark里添加新的dissector遇到的问题及解决方法

在wireshark里添加新的dissector遇到了这样的问题，添加了packet-xx.c,在Makefile.common中也添加了Includes，但是编译却不能将添加的函数注册的register.c中去，即使remove掉了register.c也不起作用。

后来发现编译过程有下面的warning：

make[3]: Entering directory `/root/Perforce/wireshark-1.4.4/epan/dissectors'
cd ../.. && /bin/bash /root/Perforce/wireshark-1.4.4/missing --run automake-1.9 --gnu epan/dissectors/Makefile
/root/Perforce/wireshark-1.4.4/missing: line 52: automake-1.9: command not found
WARNING: `automake-1.9' is missing on your system. You should only need it if
you modified `Makefile.am', `acinclude.m4' or `configure.in'.
You might want to install the `Automake' and `Perl' packages.

Making register.c with python

也就是说automake没有被执行。这导致了Makefile.common更改后没有更新Makefile.in。打开Makefile.in果然没有发现新加的packet-xx.c文件。

于是重新安装automake，并在wireshark-1.4.4目录执行automake，问题解决。
