Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Win2000 Error: wireshark.exe is not a valid Win32 applicatio
Here are the result of the where nmake/cl/link/mt:
where nmake
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\nmake.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Bin\nmake.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\NMAKE.EXE
where cl
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\cl.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\CL.EXE
where link
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\link.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\LINK.EXE
where mt
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\mt.exe
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003 R2\Bin\mt.exe
I have Visual C++ 6.0 installed on this system as well; would using this compiler help? I use Visual 2005 EE because its recommended in the Win32 build guide.
Thanks,
Greg

Regarding the "Not a valid win32 app" on W2K, as best as I could work
out, this is an issue introduced by the manifest compiler\linker
contained within the W2K3 Platform SDK. This might have been fixed in
the Vista SDK, but as I don't (currently) use that I'm not sure. What I
can tell you is that that the SDK supplied with VS2005 Professional does
work, but that's not much help to you with EE.
Can you post the results of using "where " for the commands
"nmake", "cl", "link" and "mt" in your build environment?
If anyone else is
building with VS 2005 EE *and* the resulting
executables work on W2K, can they please post what SDK they are using.
