Pavel Hrdina e5c00317de wireshark: fix compilation errors
With meson introduction which is using the same CFLAGS for the whole
project some compilation errors were discovered. The wireshark plugin
library is the only one in tools directory that is not using AM_CFLAGS.

With the AM_CFLAGS we get these errors:

About

This is the project of Google Summer of Code 2013 accepted by QEMU.org and libvirt community. The goal of this project is, provide Wireshark dissector for Libvirt RPC protocol. It will provide Libvirt packet overview/detail analysing in Wireshark. Furthermore, it will be able to build(generated) from RPC protocol definition placed in Libvirt source tree to support latest protocol specification.

See also:

Installation

Run ./configure with --with-wireshark-dissector option enabled. Then dissector will compiled with libvirt itself.

Add/Remove protocol from dissector's support

Modify variable WS_DISSECTOR_PROTO_FILES in tools/wireshark/src/Makefile.am.

Changing installation directory

You can change installation directory of pluggable shared object(libvirt.so) by specifying --with-ws-plugindir=<path>.

You can install libvirt.so into your local wireshark plugin directory:

$ ./configure --with-wireshark-dissector \
              --with-ws-plugindir=$HOME/.wireshark/plugins
