I am a newbie to Wireshark
development. My aim is to have a protocol dissector.
I have Windows XP along with cygwin
installed on my m/c.
I read the "INSTALL" file and tried to do a
"./configure" in wireshark folder through cygwin.
Then, I got this error and stops.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxstartxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
checking whether to use libpcap for packet
capture... yes
checking for extraneous pcap header directories... not
found
checking pcap.h usability... no
checking pcap.h presence...
no
checking for pcap.h... no
configure: error: Header file pcap.h not
found; if you installed libpcap
from source, did you also do "make
install-incl", and if you installed a
binary package of libpcap, is there
also a developer's package of libpcap,
and did you also install that
package?
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxENDxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I downloaded "libpcap" source from www.tcpdump.org and put inside wireshark
directory.
I tried to compile this libcap separately and got
an error
