[Wireshark-dev] (1) building Wireshark in build.wireshark fails, (2) how to get dissector details without packet

2021-04-15 Thread Vincent Randal
Hello, (1) building Wireshark in build.wireshark fails The solution here is to use "build" as the name of the build directory and then make succeeds. Otherwise, if the build directory has some other name like build.wireshark then make fails at about 70% when building qtui. Why do I want to name

(1) There is no error message other than it fails immediately when beginning building "qtui" (at about 70% of the way into make for wireshark-3.4.4) (2) Good point. Wireshark uses dissectors to provide details of packets, as you point out. So then the dissector source code provides the details of t

Wireshark is a complicated project to build. You can follow the tested way, as shown in the Developers Guide, which is essentially what our Continuous Integration (CI) systems use and most other developers, or you can forge your own path on less travelled routes strewn with rocks, rusty nails and

Hi Pascal, Where is the build log? I've since rebuilt Wireshark successfully in ./build as Graham wisely suggests. This thing is not easy to reproduce. There may be something unstable about my build environment on Ubuntu 18.04 if that even makes sense. What I do have is the build output to the ter

Hi Pascal, Guy, and numerous others, I managed to save my terminal window contents. It's over 1MB compressed. If I cannot reproduce the problem I will look through that. Thank you, Vincent On Thu, Apr 15, 2021 at 9:10 AM Vincent Randal wrote: > Hi Pascal, > > Where is the build log? I've since
