Thanks Don. After using the flex (2.5.4) from the GnuWin32, the problem was
solved !
I had to do a 'distclean' too, as it was taking source files generated
earlier. Thanks for the hint, Anders.

Regards,
Abhijit

I had this problem.  Read
http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=2493, especially the
part about using flex from GnuWin32.

Thanks for your response. If I don't include the cygwin INCLUDE path, then
I
get the following error. When I searched for the header file it is
complaining about (unistd.h), it was present in the cygwin include path
and
so I appended it.

The compiler output with cygwin INCLUDE path was :

You don't need the Cygwin include path at all.  This is causing these
errors.  Remove that addition to the INCLUDE env var and try again.  If
you are still getting errors have you set up the Visual Studio env vars
by the steps in 2.2.6 of the guide?

Hi,

I am trying to compile the wireshark by following the instructions
word-by-word  given at
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html
Only that instead of getting the source through subversion, I have
downloaded version 1.0.0.0 zipped code.

However I am getting following compilation error :
"k12text.c
C:\cygwin\usr\include\sys/_types.h(15) : error C2054: expected '(' to
follow
'__
extension__'
C:\cygwin\usr\include\sys/_types.h(15) : error C2085: '_off64_t' : not in
formal
 parameter list"

Note that I had to append the INCLUDE environment variable with the path
for
cygwin include (C:\cygwin\usr\include\sys).

Can anybody please throw some light?
Thanks in advance,
