.dll has no "plugin_want_major" symbol

Building my own custom wireshark dissector. Built Wireshark 2.9.0 from source code and custom dissector works perfectly on my own pc. Downloaded Wireshark 2.9.0-1229-g4eb5b535 online and tried out my custom dissector. Works perfect as well. However, an error message known as "foo.dll has no "plugin_want_major" symbol" occur when I copy my custom plugin .dll into Wireshark 2.9.0-1554 on a separate computer. Does anyone have a solution to it? Thank you very much.
