Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources
I have the same problem. I have tried to do distclean and compile again several times, but no luck.

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources
Hi Rohan, The distclean target cleans up any files made for a distribution... this removes any generated stuff and keeps the sources untouched. You can't compile a single file if you are changing the in-built dissectors because all of the functionality is part of one big shared library and that library needs to be relinked. I would like to point out however that the build system compiles only changed sources (and a few other files) and only re-links them... so, I normally find that if I change only a particular dissector the re-build takes a only about a minute, but after a distclean it takes a good 5-10 minutes (on my system).

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources
On Thu, Apr 30, 2009 at 5:59 AM, Abhik Sarkar sarkar.ab...@gmail.comwrote: Hi Rohan, The distclean target cleans up any files made for a distribution... this removes any generated stuff and keeps the sources untouched. You can't compile a single file if you are changing the in-built dissectors because all of the functionality is part of one big shared library and that library needs to be relinked. I would like to point out however that the build system compiles only changed sources (and a few other files) and only re-links them... so, I normally find that if I change only a particular dissector the re-build takes a only about a minute, but after a distclean it takes a good 5-10 minutes (on my system). Regards, Abhik. Just for the record: The Windows build does *not* handle changed .h files and .h fie dependencies when deciding what needs to be recompiled. So: if a .h file is changed, then either a complete rebuild is needed or you must manually force a recompile for any .c files using the .h file (E.G.: by deleting the .obj files corresponding to the .c files). Doing this manually can easily miss something so use the manual procedure only if you are exactly sure what needs to be recompiled when a .h file changes. ___ Sent via:Wireshark-dev mailing list wireshark-dev@wireshark.org Archives:http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe

hi, I think you should try building wireshark with visual studio 2005. Also Make appropriate changes in the config.nmake file. I also had problems with visual studio 2008.
