Hello,
I thought I'd give Wireshark a spin through Purify and the initial
results seems rather fishy (see wireshark_view.txt). There are a vast
number of errors/warnings, which leads me to believe I must be doing
something wrong. I've noticed in the past that some people have been
running Wireshark under valgrind, which surely must have caught these
errors if they existed. So my question is whether anyone has ever tried
running Wireshark under Purify?
Some info:
- Windows XP SP2
- SVN revision 28407
- MSVC 6.0
- PSDK Feb. 2003
I also had to patch config.nmake (see config.nmake.patch) to get Purify
working.
