Wireshark · Ethereal-dev: RE: [Ethereal-dev] How to trace Ethereal on WinXP using MSVC++?

["RABRET Laurent RD-MAPS-ISS" <laurent.rabret@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

For visual Studio 2003 (but it should be similar with older releases) create a new project/solution:

-        File / New / Project / General / Makefile Project

-        Enter this information :

1.     on build command line: nmake –f makefile.nmake (packaging)

2.     on rebuild command line: nmake –f makefile.nmake (packaging)

3.     on clean command line: nmake –f makefile.nmake distclean

4.     on output command line: $(SolutionDir)\ethereal.exe or $(SolutionDir)\ethereal-gtk2.exe

Caution: the project (XXX.sln, XXX.vcproj etc…) must be moved to the Ethereal root folder otherwise, you would have to change default directories.

Regards

Laurent

If you are looking to build Ethereal from within the Visual Studio GUI then I am not going to be much help to you. The only way I know of building Ethereal is through the command line interface.

That's exactly what I want to know. I'm interested in how to make a project in MSVC to build Ethereal.

Anyway that's the question of comfort. :-)

But thanx anyway!

Anton.

 

P.S. What software was used while creating makefile.nmake?
