The wiki tips page has a couple of useful
sections on debugging and setting up browse info for MSVC.
http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/Tips
I’ve also done it by creating a
dummy static library project and using Wireshark as the “program”
under the debug settings (useful for putting a breakpoint in start-up code).
Cheers
Doug

Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q,clear cut A ?
thanks for the willingness to assist.
I did one thing : created an empty directory c:\wireshark-win32-libs
and then ran the nmake -f makefile.nmake all
with no further problems whatsoever.
Since my install was a "clean" one (no previous wireshark
builds etc.)
I guess this may happen to others as well.
If I may, one other short Q - the manual does not specify how I can use
the MSVC IDE
to debug wireshark, which was my main reason for building it.
Is there a way to do that?

Hi,
What version are you trying to build?
What does the line
DOWNLOAD_PREFIX
In the file tools/win32-setup.sh say?

Hi,
I have faithfully followed the Cygwin/packages installation, done the
distclean and verify_tools stages. At the setup stage I get an error at the
glib part:
bash tools\win32-setup.sh --appverify cl link nmake bash
bison flex env grep /usr/bin/find perl env python sed
unzip wget
Checking for required applications:
cl: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/cl
link: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/link
nmake: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/nmake
bash: /usr/bin/bash
bison: /usr/bin/bison
flex: /usr/bin/flex
env: /usr/bin/env
grep: /usr/bin/grep
/usr/bin/find: /usr/bin/find
perl: /usr/bin/perl
env: /usr/bin/env
python: /cygdrive/c/ibmtools/python22/python
sed: /usr/bin/sed
unzip: /usr/bin/unzip
wget: /usr/bin/wget
****** glib-2.6.6.zip ******
No HTTP proxy specified (http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY are empty).
Downloading gtk2.6/glib-2.6.6.zip into , installing into glib
ERROR: Can't find glib
So while I fully believe it "cleanly" works for many, obviously there
is
something missing in the manual.
Any tips would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi,
Just faithfully follow the developer guides guidelines on setting up your
development environment, including cygwin and its tools, as well gathering
the libraries.
Tried it a couple of times, never failed on me.
Thanx,
Jaap
