I hv read the Developer's guide and through my Cygwin, I hv already
gcc,gdb,flex,make,bash,python,perl,sed,bison,flex,diff,patch tools.
Also, when I do a
$ gtk-config --version
1.2.10
$ glib-config --version
1.2.10
This means that gtk+and Glib libraries are also installed. But still , I
get the same error.
Pls help me in building WS in Windows Cygwin platform
---Thanks

Hi Manjunath,
On WIN32, there are several other requirements than just cygwin to
compile WS. Please check out the documentation at
http://wireshark.org/develop.html and
http://wireshark.org/download/docs/developer-guide-a4.pdf to start
with. If you follow the instructions in the developer guide without
deviating, you can will almost certainly be successful on the first
compile attempt.

Abhik

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 have downloaded source from
http://www.wireshark.org/download/src/wireshark-0.99.5.tar.gz
I read the "INSTALL" file and tried to do a "./configure" in wireshark
folder through cygwin.
Then, I got this error and stops.

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?

I downloaded "libpcap" source from www.tcpdump.org and put inside
wireshark directory.
I tried to compile this libcap separately and got an error

How to move forward in the building process.???
