knowledge of particular types of plugins. Instead, let particular types
of plugins register with the common plugin code, giving a name and a
routine to recognize that type of plugin.
In particular applications, only process the relevant plugin types.
Add a Makefile.common to the codecs directory.

For those with dissectors outside the source tree, please see tools/convert_expert_add_info_format.pl for help with the conversion. Please do not use expert_add_info_format_internal, as it's support time will be very short lived.

when the preferences for the dissector are changed.
This is not a 100% correct implementation at the time because the
prefs_changed function in all Lua plugins will be called whenever
a preference in a single Lua plugin is changed.

that directory since 2001 and reading from that directory was only left in for
backwards compatibility with versions prior to r4702. I think it's now safe
to remove that backwards compatibility.
This eliminates the last argument of get_persconffile_path().

epan/show_exception.c, as it's used outside
epan/dissectors/packet-frame.c. Update their callers to include
<epan/show_exception.h> to get their declaration.
Add a CATCH_NONFATAL_ERRORS macro that catches all exceptions that, if
there's more stuff in the packet to dissect after the dissector call
that threw the exception, doesn't mean you shouldn't go ahead and
dissect that stuff. Use it in all those cases, including ones where
BoundsError was inappropriately being caught (you want those passed up
to the top level, so that the packet is reported as having been cut
short in the capture process).
Add a CATCH_BOUNDS_ERRORS macro that catches all exceptions that
correspond to running past the end of the data for a tvbuff; use it
rather than explicitly catching those exceptions individually, and
rather than just catching all exceptions (the only place that
DissectorError should be caught, for example, is at the top level, so
dissector bugs show up in the protocol tree).
Don't catch and then immediately rethrow exceptions without doing
anything else; just let the exceptions go up to the final catcher.
Use show_exception() to report non-fatal errors, rather than doing it
yourself.
If a dissector is called from Lua, catch all non-fatal errors and use
show_exception() to report them rather than catching only
ReportedBoundsError and adding a proto_malformed item.
Don't catch exceptions when constructing a trailer tvbuff in
packet-ieee8023.c - just construct it after the payload has been
dissected, and let whatever exceptions that throws be handled at the top
level.
Avoid some TRY/CATCH/ENDTRY cases by using checks such as
tvb_bytes_exist() before even looking in the tvbuff.

Fix memory errors in Lua dissectors.
- Free Tvb when created from ByteArray.
- Free TvbRange correctly.
- Free string from get_persconffile_path and get_datafile_path.
- Some code cleanup.

This works between C and Lua.
In C the pinfo.private_table pointer must be initialized using
g_hash_table_new (g_str_hash, g_str_equal);
In Lua the values are available using pinfo.private.<key>, and the
table is created automatically on first usage. It's possible to use
this datatypes: nil, boolean, number and string, but every value
is converted to string so numbers must be converted using tonumber()
on usage. Boolean is either nil or an empty string.

Pull function names to column 0 - except when necessary for autoregistration.
Put function comments before the function.
For readability, put the macros for functions before the function too.
Put class functions before the class.

We can have a case where one Lua dissector calls another Lua dissector,
so we can't mark all objects when only one dissector is completed.
This fixes comment #37 and #39 in bug 2453.

Fix for https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2453
The patch fixes the problem by extending the original "outstanding stuff"
approach.
Now the pointer itself won't be NULLified, instead we track the pointers with
their expiry state in structs in the outstanding_stuff list.
The Lua objects refers to those structs instead of the actual pointers and
checks the expiry state of the pointers before accessing them.
The pointers are marked expired when the dissection of the frame is finished
and the allocated struct is freed by Lua's garbage collector.
If the garbage collector hits the struct when it holds a not expired pointer,
it marks it as expired (that means we don't have any object in Lua referring to
the pointer) and the struct will be freed at the end of the dissection of the
frame.
this is for the 1.0 branch

capinfos and dumpcap don't need to depend on libwireshark nor directly pull
in those modules). Because capinfos and editcap were only being linked with
privileges.c if we had plugins, this allows those programs to be linked when
someone is compiling --without-plugins.
