Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Win2000 Error: wireshark.exe is not a valid Win32 applicatio

I guess if I used VS 6.0, I wouldn't need Platform SDK 2003 as its already integrated in the 6.0 compiler package. To use 6.0, I would need to prepare cmd.exe by calling
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\VC98\Bin\vcvars32.bat"
instead of
"C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\bin\vcvars32.bat"
correct?
 
This would still not resolve the issue with VC 2005 EE and Platform SDK 2003 R3. I'm surprised this is not a common problem among other Wireshark developers; do people just not use (or test on) Windows 2000 anymore?

These look OK, what's the value of your INCLUDE env var?

As the main win32 build is still produced using 6.0 I would think so. I
stopped using it about 4 months ago so I can't comment myself. You
might still run into the same issue though using the W2K3 SDK.
