Thanks,
What's the difference in this patch?
does this patch only modify several files?
If so, I'd like to add patch to my 1.0.4 one,
could you give me some information for the modification?
Thanks again.

Sean

Checked in in r27186. Sean, you'll have to get the
sources from SVN or download
wireshark-1.0.6pre1-27186.tar.gz or later when it shows up
at
http://www.wireshark.org/download/prerelease/ in the next
hour or so.

Hi,

I submitted a patch to Gerald allowing to build 1.0.X
branch with
VS2008 and VS2008EE. Wait for its delivery or switch
to trunk in the
meantime.

Regards,
Pascal.

2009/1/7 Sean <yunjnz@xxxxxxxxx>:
After modifying from VS2008 PE to EE, the
installer still doesn't work.
Can anyone help me on this issue?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
I think changes were made to make WS compile
with
VS2008/VS2008EE after
branching of the 1.0.x branch. You are better
of using
trunk with VS2008.

Anders

Greetings,

I'm using source code of 1.0.4 to
build
package
under windows XP,
the compiler is Microsoft Visual
Studio 2008
Professional Edition,
the config.nmake is configured to
MSVC_VARIANT=MSVC2008EE,
after compilation, the package is
created
successfully,
but after installing on windows XP,
the wireshark can't run
successfully,
following is the message:

The application failed to initialize
properly(0xc0000142). Click on OK to
terminate the
application.

If you have Visual Studio 2008 Profesional
Edition,
you
should set
MSVC_VARIANT to MSVC2008 instead of
MSVC2008EE (which
is
for the Express
Edition). One of the key differences
between the
Express
Editions of
Visual Studio (and the reason we have
different
variant
definitions) is
that they don't come with package-able
versions of
the
C and C++
runtimes, while the "full
frontal" editions
do.
Setting the variant to MSVC2008EE (or
MSVC2005EE)
means
that the
installer you create won't come with
the C
runtime, and
assumes that
you'll have Microsoft Visual C++ 2008
SP1
Redistributable Package
installed on the target machine.
But it seems that the version 1.0.4 can't
recognize
MSVC2008 in
config.nmake,
how can I modify the config.nmake?
should I modify other files for using MSVC
2008
professional instead of MSVC
2008 EE?
Thank you very much.
