Gerald Combs 00f087b2f0 In doc/Makefile.nmake, use the "install-deps" target from the root
Makefile.nmake instead of doing our own XCOPYing.  Use the "clean-deps"
target when we're done instead of leaving DLLs lying around.

Normalize the use of underscores vs hyphens in the "clean-deps" target.

Whitespace changes (replace multiple spaces by TABs, in a few cases this

Ulf Lamping 047cdd0f2a First part to fix #148: use command line parameter -o not only for preferences but also for recent settings.
This way we can simply remove the GUI related command line parameters -B, -P and -T, which are useless now.

Ronnie Sahlberg fcab322ada Some applications do very naughty things like reusing a port for a different protocol during different stages of an application cycle.
This is very naughty and will cause problems when we have assigned a dissector to a dynamic port using conversation_set_dissector().


To make ethereal handle this case I have changed the try_conversation_dissector() to allow it to fail and return 0,   meaning   yes there is indeed a protocol registered for this conversation but that protocol rejected this packet.
(which only happens for "new" style dissectors, "old" style dissectors will never reject a packet that way)

When this happens  the decode_udp_port() helper will still allow other dissectors to be tried, in the hope that the conversation is now used for some other protocol and thus someone else might be able to decode the packet.


Update SNMP and TFTP dissectors to  check that even if there already is a conversation but that conversation does NOT have snmp/tftp registered as the dissector for it, then create a new conversation anyway and attach the proper dissector.

Since ethereal keeps track of which frame number a conversation started in, this actually works really well.

Lars Roland 5bb4e926aa add the new target "install-plugins" to nmake makefile
in the plugins subdirectory. This target will copy all plugins to plugins/$(VERSION), thus (t)ethereal will
find and load the plugins when called from within the source tree.

call this target from the main nmake makefile after
installing other dependencies. call it from the nmake makefile
in the doc subdirectory before calling "tethereal -G".
This way "tethereal -G" will recognize the filterable
fields from the plugins, too.

Lars Roland 2f5fee9c99 Add an install-deps target to the nmake makefiles.
This target will copy all files, mainly dlls, which
are necessary to run (t)ethereal to the source tree.

After copying all necessary dlls to the source tree,
you can run (t)ethereal directly from the source tree.

Guy Harris 8b334b9148 Make it a bit clearer that what "-w" writes is raw binary packet data,
not the result of dissecting that data.

Note that "-F" applies to the output of "-w", that "-S" says "dissect
and print even if you're doing '-w'", and that "-T" applies to the
dissected output, not the "-w" output.

Guy Harris 802859d3fd Call the "new-style init" routine for plugins a "register" routine, as
it serves the same purpose as the register routine in a built-in
dissector, and don't require all dissectors to have one, as they might
just be taps.

Get rid of the stats tree's init routine, as it's just a tap, and as it
doesn't do anything.

Update the idl2eth Python script to generate plugins with register routines.

Lars Roland 00273300e7 Preparations for dropping the old plugin api.
Introduce a new init routine for plugins, 
which does not take the plugin api table as an 
argument and allows etheral to distinguish 
between plugins using the old and the new api.

Update README.plugins accordingly

Change all g_warnings() in epan/plugins.c to report_failue().
On windows we do not have a log console open while
loading the plugins, because a log console cannot be opened before the prefs have been read. Thus g_warnings()
does not work for reporting problems with plugins.

Guy Harris 3d5b1d5f13 From Graeme Hewson: rename the global preferences file to "preferences"
(it's now in an "ethereal" directory, so there's no need for it to have
a name that distinguishes it from files for other programs) - if it's
not found as "preferences", try "ethereal.conf" for compatibility - and
update the man pages appropriately.

Fix a typo in the section color filters (the file name is "colorfilters",
not "color filters").
