Thanks, it worked. Now I have a problem doing “nmake –f Makefile.nmake distclean” operation:

I found that file - C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.1\Include\Win32.Mak and tried to put in wireshark sources folder but it didn’t work.

 

Thanks

 

With  best regards,

What’s the problem with that package? Also I don’t understand the message “Downloading gtk2 into '/cygdrive/c/Program', installing into Files\Wireshark” – it creates folder c:\program and with folder Files\Wireshark inside it. The path for wireshark_lib set to c:\Program Files\Wireshark

 

Is it normal behavior?

 

 

 

Try building (and putting your wireshark libs) in a path without spaces, e.g. C:\Wireshark.  I use Wireshark\trunk for the sources and Wireshark\libs for the libs.
