Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] compile error on packet-ieee802154.c

Yu,

Although these are valid warnings that probably should be corrected (as in the attached patch), I think you will likely encounter many more warnings (A recent compile of SVN31986 on RHEL5 w/gcc 4.1.1 produced 450 warnings besides the ones you reported below).  Since it might be awhile (maybe never) before all these warnings are fixed, you might want to run the configure script as “configure –disable-warnings-as-errors”.

Hi all,

I tried to build code in lattest version and follow the development guide closely, however, get errors as following:

packet-ieee802154.c
packet-ieee802154.c(884) : error C2220: warning treated as error - no 'object' f

I'm very new to build wireshark, so it would be really appreciated for any comments.

Thanks in advance.
