Hi,

 

I haven’t built Wireshark for a while.  I did a fresh git pull and then tried a build.  I get a whole raft of errors but they seem to originate from this one:

I don’t have the directory c-ares-1.9.1-1-win64ws but I do have c-ares-1.11.0-win64ws.

 

I’m building on Windows 7 64-bit with Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition.  I run the following command to prep for the build:

 

C:\Development\Wireshark\build>cmake -D ENABLE_CHM_GUIDES=on -G "Visual Studio 12 Win64" ..\

 

Any advice much appreciated.

 

Best regards…Paul

cd ..

rd /s /q build

mkdir build

cmake ...

Sometime changes to the build seem to be too much for CMake to handle in an existing build dir and rather than track them down, I've adopted the "take off and nuke the build from orbit" approach.
