Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compilation errors while building the Wireshark sources

[Anonymous Anonymous <a.master.blaster@xxxxxxxxx>]

I'm still stuck at this. Here is the complete build log I've managed to extract using the command: nmake -f Makefile.nmake all > build-log.txt 2>&1

Also, I've noticed that I'm currently using Python 3.0.1 as opposed to the 2.6 version suggested by the developers guide. Can that be the source to the problems?

Thanks.

Just for the record:

The Windows build does *not* handle changed .h files and .h fie
dependencies when deciding what needs to be recompiled.

So: if a .h file is changed, then either a complete rebuild is needed or
 you must manually force a recompile for any .c files using the .h file
(E.G.: by deleting the .obj files corresponding to the .c files).

Doing this manually can easily miss something so use the manual
procedure only if you are exactly sure what needs to be recompiled when
a .h file changes.
