Any objections against this (in my eyes cleaner) solution?


Somebody asked about this in 2004:

	http://www.wireshark.org/lists/ethereal-dev/200405/msg06091.html

but I'm not sure why, given the answer:

	http://www.wireshark.org/lists/ethereal-dev/200405/msg06093.html

that wasn't done.

At that time, I worked on getting rid of the old plugin api stuff. Creating a def file based on the files for the old plugin api stuff was quite easy. The solution with __declspec would have been the next step but it would have meant some extra work for me and I was satisfied with the def file solution.
BTW, I'd like to thank all people who continue to contribute so much work and time to Wireshark. I wish I had some time left to work on Wireshark improvements and bugfixes. I still use Wireshark every day in my work and it is definitively the most valuable tool to me.
BTW, finally I don't need to maintain a parallel installation of MSVC6 and MSVC2005 on my laptop anymore and can deinstall MSVC6. Thanks.

Lars
