Hi, good afternoon!

I've followed the instructions as described here (https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_h...) to create a custom dissector based on the sample and I'm getting some trouble trying to load the dissector.

First of all, let me say that I'm not building wireshark (and I don't want to get into that if not needed). I'm using the packages available on my system (Fedora Core 36). Those packages are: wireshark and wireshark-devel.

The thing Is I've been able to build the plugin (as shared object) but after loading into wireshark I see the plugin loaded but I cannot find the filter. I mean, I load a pcap file with the traffic related to the plugin and when I type the "sdts" in the filter bar, I cannot see it.

if I type: tshark -G plugins in the command line I get the sdts loaded but when I click on View -> Internals -> Supported Protocols I can't find the dissector.

Please, can anyone help me with this?

NOTE: I tried to paste some images and source code to give more details about my problem but I couldn't.
