Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
I read through this thread with keen interest as I am experiencing similar issues. I am a UNIX developer (literally) but am currently developing Wireshark on Windows so there could be operator error involved. I've been successfully building using MSVC and nmake for the past couple years and only recently decided to use MSDEV for debugging. I get the usual initial pause in ..\gtk\main.c but pressing F5 to continue causes the unrecoverable error - "Unhandled exception in wireshark.exe (LIBGLIB-2.0.0.DLL) Access violation". If I run wireshark.exe outside of the debugger it performs perfectly. Has anyone seen this before and know the root cause? I've carefully followed the advice on the wiki and have pointed MSDEV to the source code and .bsc file. I've tried both attaching MSDEV to a running instance of wireshark and also allowing MSDEV to spawn the instance. Both experience the same failure.

An alternative way to do this is to: 1. Start wireshark.exe and msdev separately. 2. In MSDEV 6, choose menu "Build" -> "Start Debug" -> "Attach to process" 3. From the list of processes, choose wireshark.exe (most certainly one of the topmost items). 4. Load the source file in which you would want to set a breakpoint using the menu "File" -> "Open". 5. Set a breakpoint at the desired line in the source code. 6. Wireshark will pause its execution once the breakpoint gets hit. Note that if you upon closing MSDEV answer yes to the question whether the debug session's opt file should be saved or not, then you can open MSDEV the next time and just reload the debug workspace from the menu "File" -> "Recent workspaces". Once the workspace has been loaded, you can start the Wireshark execution (in the debugger from the beginning) using for instance "F5", "F10", or "F11". / Regards, Peter Martin Warnes wrote: > The following works for me when debugging a plugin it should be the > same for a built in dissector: > > 1.

Sleepless, The steps provided earlier by another responder work great in vs6. If you're using vs7 or vs8 to debug you'll likely have trouble. 1) Open the .c file within your dev env. 2) Start debugging. 3) Once wireshark is loaded (and all DLLs for dissectors have been loaded dynamically), break into wireshark, add your breakpoint, then resume execution. 4) Cause the code you want to break into to execute. It should break just fine. -Brian Sleep Less wrote: > Thanks for everyone's tips. I'm still stuck.

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
vs7 is a lot smarter at handling breakpoints than vs6 is, but it also won't automatically understand that an open .c file in your environment has symbols that match up with the symbols referenced in the symbols within a binary that's being debugged because it doesn't understand the symbol format used to compile those binaries. That's the trouble I ran into with vs7 and vs8, hence i'm using vs6. -Brian Douglas Pratley wrote: > > It’s the .pdb files that it needs – they should have been created when > the file was compiled.

Thanks for everyone's tips. I'm still stuck. PDB files do exist (we're talking about the dissectors.lib segement since it aggregates the dissectors). When I implement Douglas's method the breakpoints are not reached, and Wireshark reports that the relevant dissector had a problem.

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
It's the .pdb files that it needs - they should have been created when the file was compiled. Is this a dynamically loaded plugin, or a statically linked object? MSVC 6 can be a bit rubbish at putting breakpoints in dynamically loaded code. If you have MSCV 7.0 installed, you could try debugging under that - it seems to be a lot smarter about breakpoints (still build using MSVC 6.0; the debug symbols are compatible). Alternatively, there is a gratuitous hack that you can try if nothing else works. At the head of the file you want to stop in, put: #define _DEBUG #include Where you want to stop, put: _CrtDbgBreak(); Compile it up (if this fails, then I'd give up on this idea - it works for me in TShark where I tried it), then run in the debugger. This will trigger a Win32 assert, and drop you into the debugger. Obviously, don't leave this in release code!

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
An alternative way to do this is to: 1. Start wireshark.exe and msdev separately. 2. In MSDEV 6, choose menu "Build" -> "Start Debug" -> "Attach to process" 3. From the list of processes, choose wireshark.exe (most certainly one of the topmost items). 4. Load the source file in which you would want to set a breakpoint using the menu "File" -> "Open". 5. Set a breakpoint at the desired line in the source code. 6. Wireshark will pause its execution once the breakpoint gets hit. Note that if you upon closing MSDEV answer yes to the question whether the debug session's opt file should be saved or not, then you can open MSDEV the next time and just reload the debug workspace from the menu "File" -> "Recent workspaces". Once the workspace has been loaded, you can start the Wireshark execution (in the debugger from the beginning) using for instance "F5", "F10", or "F11". / Regards, Peter Martin Warnes wrote: > The following works for me when debugging a plugin it should be the same > for a built in dissector: > > 1.

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
The following works for me when debugging a plugin it should be the same for a built in dissector: 1. Open wireshark.exe in MSVC and F5 to start debug. 2. When it pauses in ..\gtk\main.c press F5 again to continue Wireshark startup. 3. Once you see the main display window open your dissector code in MSVC and insert your break point(s). 4. Open capture file used by your dissector and it should halt at the required breakpoints (at least it does for me) Martin Sleep Less wrote the following on 01/12/2006 11:55: > Well not quite - the compiler still disables breakpoint in the > dissector, as it fails to see > the (symbolic) connection.

Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
[Apologies if this message appears twice - I am having some trouble persuading exchange to be consistent about which SMTP address it uses for outgoing email, and my first try bounced as a non-menber] The wiki tips page has a couple of useful sections on debugging and setting up browse info for MSVC. http://wiki.wireshark.org/Development/Tips I've also done it by creating a dummy static library project and using Wireshark as the "program" under the debug settings (useful for putting a breakpoint in start-up code).

[Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?
Hi All, from Andre Martin's recent (Nov 2) posting it is not clear to me if Wireshark can be indeed compiled under MSVC 6.0 in a hassle free manner? The developers doc is really partial, e.g on page 24 section 2.6.2 the nmake example seems to give an example of a failure, not of the correct usage. Also instruction on how to run wireshark on MSVC6 debugger (2.5.3) are missing. So I'd be most appreciative on anyone who has done it can give a short description of what it involves. Initial system is assumed to be a "clean" MSVC 6.0, no other tools, Windows XP SP2. thanks, Haim - Access over 1 million songs - Yahoo!
