Hi Graham, thanks a lot for the detailed explaination. I got stucked on point #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).*"
How do I open a Visual Studio command prompt, to set the environment variables? Sorry for this very trivial question, and thanks again! :) 2014-06-10 11:11 GMT+02:00 Graham Bloice <graham.blo...@trihedral.com>: > On 10 June 2014 09:23, Joerg Mayer <jma...@loplof.de> wrote: > >> Hello Giorgio, >> >> On Tue, Jun 10, 2014 at 10:00:47AM +0200, Giorgio Buffa wrote: >> > I would like to develop a dissector, from the current stable release >> > (1.10.7).
