Från: [EMAIL PROTECTED] genom Bill Meier Skickat: on 2008-02-13 21:15 Till: wireshark-dev@wireshark.org Ämne: [Wireshark-dev] gnu libiconv.dll no longer required for WindowsWireshark ... >Based upon information posted on http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html, it >appears that Windows Glib >= 2.14.5 now statically links in win_iconv in place >of using the gnu libiconv DLL. (See below). >Therefore: I propose to remove the downloading, linking, packaging, etc of >libiconv for Windows Wireshark & etc. from the various Windows Makefiles for >the >GTK "2.12" variant of the Windows build. I also noted the text and was going to try it out at some stage. >(Actually: is there any particular reason to keep the options for GTK2.6 and >GTK >2.8 in the Makefiles ?) No, only if we plan to revert back but I think it's high time to clear it out... >(AFAICT, Windows Wireshark does not use libiconv elsewhere and does build OK >w/o >gnu libiconv). > >If I'm missing anything and there's a reason to keep Gnu libiconv for Windows >Wireshark, please let me know. If there are no objections, I'll commit the >changes tomorrow (Thurs). Go aheaed and please try the new Glib out as well. Bill ------------------------------------------------------------ >From http://www.gtk.org/download-windows.html: About win_iconv win_iconv is an implementation of iconv for Windows by Yukihiro Nakadaira that has a much smaller footprint than GNU libiconv. The win_iconv package above includes the header file, static archive library and the source file. This library is linked statically into GLib 2.14.5 and later, thus not needed separately at run-time. About iconv.dll GLib 2.14.4 and earlier links to iconv in a separate DLL, iconv.dll. This can either be the GNU libiconv or the win_iconv DLL which is intented to be a drop-in replacement. _______________________________________________ Wireshark-dev mailing list Wireshark-dev@wireshark.org http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev <http://www.wireshark.org/mailman/listinfo/wireshark-dev>
