Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources

[Abhik Sarkar <sarkar.abhik@xxxxxxxxx>]

Did you try
nmake -f makefile.nmake distclean
nmake -f makefile.nmake all
This has often worked for me in similar situations.

No luck so far.
I've re-downloaded the sources using TortoiseSVN and compilation again fails in the exact same place.
Any suggestions?

Hi,

Well, he's building the 1.1.4 development version, so 2008 should be fine. It
seems that you've a botched tarball or working copy, since little has changed in
this area for a long time.
Try downloading a new tarball or revert changes in the working copy and start
from the current head of development.

Thanx,
Jaap
