Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Adding tap to dissector causes build errors in tap.h?

[Shawn Mayer <mayer_sr@xxxxxxxx>]

After reverting back to the original file I found that tap.h throws 
errors even if the only change I make is adding the "#include <tap.h>". 
I've tried including it in packet-aim.c and packet-aim-messaging.c with 
the same results:

Is tap.h broken?
