Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Cmake on windows

I am sorry, I still don't understand, I beg your pardon.

You said

But I cannot find any point in the developer guide where it is explained that the MSVC redistributable has to be copied somewhere, nor I know how to do it myself without a more detailed explanation.

Hi Pascal

I'm not sure I got the point. I try to explain what I understand. I have one single build, that may have multiple problems, some trivial, some not. The error I see in cmake could be ignored, while the one that counts is the fact I need the MSVC redistributable in the wireshark-lib folder.

Am I correct?

Yes if you do not have a step building the WiX installer (which seems to be the case).

Joao is correct: on one side you have a non fatal error in CMake that only impacts the WiX installer, and in the other side your machine does not have the MSVC redistributable copied in the wireshark-libs folder (as explained in the developer guide) while it is required for the NSIS installer.

Can you link the devel guide where it's explained? I just found

https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSrcBinary.html#ChSrcNSIS

https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html

In the past it used to be more visible if I remember correctly.

BR,

Pascal.
