No, a plugin can be enabled and disabled without reinstalling WS. > Or can we have 2 instances of wireshark running on the same machine ? See the manual page of wireshark, in particular the part about plugins. If you have two different versions of wireshark, then you can put two different plugins in different directories. > Could someone help me with a basic foo plugin ? What is your purpose? Have you read doc/README.developer already? If you are trying to create a dissector, I suggest to add a new protocol dissector instead of a plugin. Those are easier to add (but require you to build a new WS binary).
