Dear Wireshark community,
 
Is it possible to have two dissectors for the same protocol, one built-in and one as a plugin, with the plugin having a slightly different name that can dissect additional (perhaps proprietary) information?
 
For example, without modifying the built-in GTP dissector, can I add a GTP-Ericsson dissector as a plugin and disable the built-in GTP dissector by modifying the disabled_protos file?
 
I have attempted this but found that I must modify libwireshark.def and recompile in order for the plugin to find certain definitions.
 
Best regards,
David Wei
