I will second that request. Being able to MSVC-2005EE to create a plugin for a standard distribution would be nice.
In the meantime VS6 it is.

We might want to switch the compiler used for the distributions to MSVC-2005EE too, or at least put a note in the DevGuide about not being able to load a plugin that was compiled with MSVC-2005EE into a standard Wireshark install :( ... or both of course ;-) Cheers, Sake _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] https://wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list [email protected] https://wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev
