Hi, It recognizes my LUA script in About->Plugins but i can't figure out how to apply the filter to my pcap. In the Windows version there is a Tools menu that lets me select the dissector, but in the 1.99.1 version for OS X I don't see a tools menu. Is it just missing in this release or is there another way to use the dissector. Thank you, Dan asked 17 Jan '15, 20:35 musca999 |
One Answer:
On OSX, the 1.99.x version's default GUI is Qt-based instead of GTK-based. The Qt version is better in many ways, but unfortunately it does not yet have all the features the GTK-based Wireshark has; one of the missing things is GUI access for Lua plugins. Adding menu items, creating new windows, etc., is all missing for Lua in Qt-based Wireshark. But why do you need it? Why does your dissector need to be invoked from the Tools menu, or why does a filter need to be invoked from the Tools menu? answered 18 Jan '15, 08:14 Hadriel |
