dissector can get a "handle" for that dissector by name and then call
that dissector through the handle.
This allows dissectors that can't be called through a port table or a
heuristic table to be called from other dissectors without directly
referring to the dissector function - dynamically-loaded modules, under
Windows, cannot directly call functions in the main program, and
non-plugin dissectors are in the main program and thus cannot be called
from plugin dissectors unless either
1) a pointer to the dissector is put in the Big Transfer Vector
or
2) some other mechanism for getting a pointer to the dissector
is provided.
This mechanism could also support registering old-style dissectors and
calling them from new-style dissectors without the new-style dissector
having to do the argument translation itself (I didn't add support for
registering old-style dissectors because I'd prefer to have people
tvbuffify their code if they have to register a dissector...).
It could also, in the future, perhaps support
disabling of protocols;
setting "pinfo->current_proto";
inside "call_dissector()" - and inside "{old_}dissector_try_port()" and
"{old_"dissector_try_heuristic()" - allowing a pile of stuff that
currently has to be done in every dissector be done by common code.
(I have some ideas about how to do this, by
having "proto_register_protocol()" take an abbreviation - of the
sort that would be put in, for example, "pinfo->current_proto" -
as an argument;
having the calls to register dissectors take an index returned
by "proto_register_protocol()" as an argument.
The abbreviation could be used elsewhere as well, e.g. in the "Decoding"
tab of the "Edit->Protocols" dialog box, and in a GUI for constructing
protocol filters. Watch this space.)
Make "dissect_sdp()" the first client of this mechanism; it's now static
to "packet-sdp.c", and all dissectors that call it - including the MGCP
plugin - now call it through a dissector handle fetched by
"find_dissector()". (Next step - see if Ethereal can now compile on
Windows as a result of this.)

platforms that have "gint64".
Fix plugin-table lines for "dissector_delete()", "dissect_data()",
"prefs_register_module()", and "prefs_register_uint_preference()".
The MGCP dissector uses routines from GLib, so when building it as a DLL
for Windows, it has to be linked with "glib-XXX.lib".

"proto_item_set_len()", "proto_item_set_text()", and the preference
routines expected to be used by dissectors to the table of function
pointers handed to dissectors on platforms where dynamically-loaded
modules can't access symbols from the main program.

"plugins/Makefile.nmake" to build that plugin.
Add to the table of routines callable from plugins
"old_dissector_add()", "old_dissect_data()", and
"proto_is_protocol_enabled()", so that the Gryphon dissector can build
on Windows.
Move the includes of "plugins/plugin_api.h" and "moduleinfo.h" before
all the other includes, except for "config.h", in "plugin-mgcp.c", to
match what the Gryphon dissector does; "plugins_api.h" must be included
before any of the routines whose names it #defines in order for the
plugin to build on Windows. (It still doesn't build on Windows, as
still more routines need to be added to the table of routines callable
from plugins, but tomorrow is another day. Making libethereal a DLL may
obviate the need for that table, *if* all the routines called from a
plugin are in libethereal, as I think routines in a DLL, even a
run-time-loaded DLL, can call routines from another DLL as long as those
routines are exported from the other DLL.)

register lists of "heuristic" dissectors, which are handed a
frame that may or may contain a payload for the protocol they
dissect, and that return FALSE if it's not or dissect the packet
and return TRUE if it is;
add a dissector to such a list;
go through such a list, calling each dissector until either a
dissector returns TRUE, in which case the routine returns TRUE,
or it runs out of entries in the list, in which case the routine
returns FALSE.
Have lists of heuristic dissectors for TCP and for COTP when used with
the Inactive Subset of CLNP, and add the GIOP and Yahoo Messenger
dissectors to the first list and the Sinec H1 dissector to the second
list.
Make the dissector name argument to "dissector_add()" and
"dissector_delete()" a "const char *" rarther than just a "char *".
Add "heur_dissector_add()", the routine to add a heuristic dissector to
a list of heuristic dissectors, to the set of routines we can export to
plugins through a table on platforms where dynamically-loaded code can't
call stuff in the main program, and initialize the element in the table
in question for "dissector_add()" (which we'd forgotten to do).
