Good day sir,
I would like to update I just now used an SVN checkout of wireshark and
error C2133 will not anymore occur.
I was mistaken. I didn't expect that I needed the updates to other files
aside from etypes.h.
About my development situation is that my target is the latest release (of
which i assume, meant latest 'stable' release).
I will try to ask if the higher-ups will agree to using the development
version of wireshark.
But in the meantime, I will try to update my working copy with any other
files needed to be updated (i.e. ws_symbol_export.h was mentioned).
Thank you very much for the support.
Sincerely,
David
