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).

Hi, thanks for the willingness to assist. I did one thing : created an empty directory c:\wireshark-win32-libs and then ran the nmake -f makefile.nmake all with no further problems whatsoever. Since my install was a "clean" one (no previous wireshark builds etc.) I guess this may happen to others as well. If I may, one other short Q - the manual does not specify how I can use the MSVC IDE to debug wireshark, which was my main reason for building it. Is there a way to do that? thanks Anders Broman <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Hi, What version are you trying to build? What does the line DOWNLOAD_PREFIX In the file tools/win32-setup.sh say?

Hi, I have faithfully followed the Cygwin/packages installation, done the distclean and verify_tools stages. At the setup stage I get an error at the glib part: bash tools\win32-setup.sh --appverify cl link nmake bash bison flex env grep /usr/bin/find perl env python sed unzip wget Checking for required applications: cl: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/cl link: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/link nmake: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/nmake bash: /usr/bin/bash bison: /usr/bin/bison flex: /usr/bin/flex env: /usr/bin/env grep: /usr/bin/grep /usr/bin/find: /usr/bin/find perl: /usr/bin/perl env: /usr/bin/env python: /cygdrive/c/ibmtools/python22/python sed: /usr/bin/sed unzip: /usr/bin/unzip wget: /usr/bin/wget ****** glib-2.6.6.zip ****** No HTTP proxy specified (http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY are empty). Downloading gtk2.6/glib-2.6.6.zip into , installing into glib ERROR: Can't find glib So while I fully believe it "cleanly" works for many, obviously there is something missing in the manual. Any tips would be much appreciated. Thanks Anders Broman wrote: Hi, And note that Wireshark can't be built "without the other tools" on any system.

Hi, Just faithfully follow the developer guides guidelines on setting up your development environment, including cygwin and its tools, as well gathering the libraries. Tried it a couple of times, never failed on me.
