Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] OMG Still it doesn't compile!

[<Andrew.Martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ok I've started over. This post is a little long, but it shows where I'm
at, hopefully it'll give you guys an idea as to what I'm not doing or
whats wrong!!!!

All this is from the win32 command line.

Run vcvar32.bat 
Nmake -f makefile.nmake distclean
Nmake -f makefile.nmake verify_tools
Nmake -f makefile.nmake setup
Nmake -f makefile.nmake all

And there's a whole load of compiling that goes on forever and a day, I
get some compiler warnings (unreferenced locals, things like that), some
fatal errors relating to winposixtype.h and netsnmp.h but still it keeps
going!

To get past all that I need to move some files locally and then it
compiles up to:

LINK : fatal error LNK1181: cannot open input file
"C:\wireshark-win32-libs\net-snmp-5.3.1\win32\lib\release\netsnmp.lib"
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~3\VC98\BIN\link.exe' :
return code '0x49d'
Stop.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'C:\PROGRA~1\MICROS~3\VC98\BIN\NMAKE.EXE' :
return code '0x2'
Stop.

Now I don't have  netsnmp.lib, I do have netsnmpagent.lib, which I
rename and move locally which solves the immediate problem, but may
cause yet to be discovered problems later! At that point I have another
error relating to lua5.1 which I solve by renaming the vc6 directory to
'dll'.

BUT...

After this point I now get:

So I figure stop and ask you guys.

I've got to write a dissector when I get this to compile, I hope its
nowhere near as much fun!
