Hi Jaap, I tried with your suggestion but still the tool crash with the same sequence. But when i tried applying the same preference code to packet-udp.cand tried to build wireshark, then it worked fine on Applying the preference from udp. *So i doubt that the problem is there while* *Registering the Preference with Plugin*, it works fine with \epan\dissectors.
Would you please guide what else can be done. Actually my requirement is to read external .xml file path/location to decode some part within my plugin packet. So how can that file path/location can be read. At present i m setting an enviornment variable and reading it but i m searching if some setting could be given in Wireshark itself to read the file path/location.
