Hi Dave,
The problem you mention has been introduced while making libethereal a
shared library. The Win32 gcc builds of Ethereal apparently have more strict
requirements on what can or cannot be in a shared library. For example, the
diameter dissector uses error functions which are not part of the
libethereal API hence linking fails.
Unfortunately I am not an expert in libraries, so I cannot tell you exactly
what to do. However, you can try using the libtool "-no-undefined" flag in
the Win32 or cygwin builds. Quoting from a message I sent earlier this week:
Currently my configure.in file looks like this:
[...]
dnl Checks for programs.
AC_PROG_CC
AC_PROG_CPP
dnl Work around libtool bug (fixed in the version 1.5a?)
AC_DEFUN([AC_PROVIDE_AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN], )
AC_LIBTOOL_DLOPEN
case "$host_os" in
cygwin*)
CFLAGS="-mms-bitfields $CFLAGS"
LDFLAGS="-no-undefined $LDFLAGS"
AC_LIBTOOL_WIN32_DLL
;;
esac
AC_PROG_LIBTOOL
[...]
You need to run autogen.sh when you modify the configure.in files in the
ethereal root directory, epan and wiretap.
Regards,
Olivier

|Subject: [Ethereal-dev] Compiling ethereal with GTK2 on Cygwin
|
|
|All,
|
|I am trying to compile ethereal on cygwin with gtk2. I got the gtk2
|libraries and related stuff from
|http://web.sfc.keio.ac.jp/~s01397ms/cygwin/index.html.en and am using
|cygwin as the environment to compile ethereal in. I took the
|latest CVS
|(ethereal-2004-03-19) tarball.
|
|Everything seems to compile ok, however when trying to link to
|ethereal.exe I get undefined references.
|
