Have a look at: http://www.ethereal.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/ethereal There you will get an online view of the current CVS tree. Your files and the CVS files should be almost identical (at least the Makefile.nmake ones). I guess you are working with the latest 0.10.0a source release. The makefile.am (which is used to pack the release) seemed to have a bug at the latest release time, so the Makefile.nmake (and some other files in this dir) is missing in this release. I don't know, why no one has noticed this before. You can download the files missing directly from the CVS view. Maybe it's a good idea to make a new source release including these files :-) Regards, ULFL ______________________________________________________________________________

Betreff:Re: [Ethereal-dev] Win32 dist tools directory: no Makefile.nmake

Hi folks,

 

I am trying to compile ethereal 0.10.0a under Windows XP using MS VC++ 6. I have installed the necessary libraries and I updated the config.nmake in the following way: I just commented out the line where the ENV variable “PATH” is defined, because the Readme.win32 suggests doing so, if you don’t have python installed. The I open a command prompt, execute “vcvars32.bat” from within the directory where the Ethereal source lies. The next step, executing nmake –f makefile.nmake, fails and I see the following error:

 

// Prompt excerpt

C:\ethereal>nmake -f makefile.nmake

        cd tools

        NMAKE /                   -f Makefile.nmake

 

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility   Version 6.00.8168.0

Makefile.nmake(6) : fatal error U1052: file '..\..\config.nmake' not found

Stop.

NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~3\VC98\BIN\NMAKE.EXE' : return co

de '0x2'

Stop.

 

// End prompt excerpt

 

As far as I understand, the script can’t find the Makefile.nmake in the “tools” subdirectory, and in fact, there is no such file when I look into that directory.

 

Can you help me solve this problem please?

 

Martin Angler
