Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Building 64 vs. 32-bit question

Date: Wed, 9 May 2012 10:55:35 -0400
I'm moving my Wireshark development environment from a win32 machine to a 64-bit one.
I use it for developing plugins, which I assume users will soon want in both 32 and 64-bit versions,
but for now I just need to build them as 32-bit.  

I know there is a target type selection at the top of config.nmake, does that apply to everything being built?  E.g.
not only the wireshark.exe and other apps, but the plugins as well?  (Is there a way to set different targets for plugins?)

I thought that was all I had to set up, but I left it at x86 and I get this error when I do 'nmake -f Makefile.nmake all':
Any idea what I'm doing wrong?  Thanks...
