You must use the "Desktop" editions of Express.
Some slight modifications from the Developers Guide mentioned by Joerg above: 1. Start with a nice clean unmodified copy of the sources first. 2. Download an appropriate version of QT for use with VS2013, I used http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.3/5.3.0/qt-opensource-windows-x86-msvc2013-5.3.0.exe, install it and find and locate the path to the bin directory. 3. You must obtain a copy of win32.mak either from an older SDK or older version of VS and copy it into C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 12.0\VC\include 4. From the Start Menu (or Screen for Win 8+) open a Visual studio Command prompt for the type of build you are making (x86 or x64). 5. Set the following environment variables adjusting the paths as required. Note that WIRESHARK_BASE_DIR is the parent directory for your git source tree and QT5_BASE_DIR is the parent directory for the QT bin directory: 1. set CYGWIN=nodosfilewarning 2. set WIRESHARK_BASE_DIR=E:\Wireshark 3. set WIRESHARK_TARGET_PLATFORM=win32 4. set QT5_BASE_DIR=C:\Qt\Qt5.3.0\5.3\msvc2013 6. Did I mention no modified sources? Now follow the dev guide to install the libraries, and then build. 7. QT requires some other DLL's to run, I used the windeployqt tool from the QT bin directory to handle this. cd from the top of your source tree into wireshark-qt-release, then execute path\to\windeployqt --release qtshark.exe. Any installer built may not install all the required DLL's for QT, that's still a work in progress at the moment. -- Graham Bloice
