Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] CMake on Windows - Can build, but not run executable

[Graham Bloice <graham.bloice@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I seem to remember earlier issues with other folks using VS2012 and wanting a 64 bit build, due to qt support problems.

VS2013 CE is available for free, you might want to consider that.

As for CMake build instructions did you look at README.cmake in the top level sources?

When we get CMake totally sorted, I'll update the Developers Guide to use that rather than nmake.  Still some things to do yet.

Hi

I have only VStudio 2012 available here at my workplace. Using CMake 3.0.2, msvc2012_64_opengl.

The error log (in german) produces the following output:

I am trying to build with 32bit now, and will keep you updated. I've figured it may have something to do with Qt, and the fact, that the package for opensource is only supporting 64 bit with VStudio2013. Why tshark and wireshark-gtk are affected by this, I can't really figure out.

Btw, should there be another page on the wiki for building with cmake on Windows? Running the setup script was one thing, but the main thing with my devenv.bat was, that I used to set WIRESHARK_BASE_DIR, but with that I never got the build running. As soon as I set WIRESHARK_LIB_DIR as environment variable, the build worked. I used the stdio information from the buildbot to figure it out, but others may well have some issues here.

regards,

Roland

Hi

I can build wireshark successfully (gtk and qt interfaces) on Windows, but If I want to execute it, he complains that the side-by-side configuration is not correct.

If I trace the launch with sxstrace, he complains, that the ProcessorArchitecture is wrong for the target (amd64).

The build is a Windows 64bit build

Using VS2013, CMake 3.1.3, QT 5.4.1 msvc2013_64_opengl.

I don't normally build x64, so gave it a go using the x64 native compiler and CMake fails configure, the testing for various sizes fails as CMake is asking the linker to use both x64 and x86 modes??

If I use the cross compiler (i.e. x86 building x64) then CMake does configure and the resulting build runs for me (both qt and gtk).

I usually run depends (http://www.dependencywalker.com/) to check what DLL's etc are to be loaded.
