Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Need help on setting up wireshark build environment

["suresh T" <sureshtelkar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi All,

I am developing wireshark plugin for some messages on UDP port.I am getting some problems while setting up win32 env for building wireshark source code using Cigwin. Following are the steps that I followed

I have followed the link http://wireshark.dsmirror.nl/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html for setting up the win32 environment.

I have installed the following
1.Microsoft vc++ 6.0
2.Cygwin
3.Installed python2.4

1.Then started the cigwin prompt and edited the config.nmake as mentioned in the above link.Then executed the following .bat file

dbjf87@DBJ787-01 /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/vc98/bin
$ ./VCVARS32.BAT
Setting environment for using Microsoft Visual C++ tools.
$

2. Then executed nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools
$ nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools

I have only not installed Platform SDK Server 2003 R2[^]  thinking that if I have vc++6.0 this will not be needed.

Is this step optional ? ae the above erros  only because of this ? or are am I missing anything ?. Please give your suggessions how to procede further.

 

Thanks In Advance

Suresh
