Hello Developers,
I am able to compile all the modules except for the doc and docbook folders.
Here are my steps to identify the problem:
 
I open a Visual Studio Express 2010 command prompt and run the following command:
 
D:\projects\wireshark\doc>nmake -f Makefile.nmake
Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 10.00.30319.01
Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation.  All rights reserved.
bash  pod2html --title="The Wireshark Network Analyzer 1.11.0"  --css=ws.css  --noindex  wireshark.pod > wireshark.html
Can't execute /usr/bin/pod2html.
NMAKE : fatal error U1077: 'bash' : return code '0x1d'
Stop.
 
When I give the complete path /usr/bin/pod2html, it compiles just fine.
 
D:\projects\wireshark\doc>bash  /usr/bin/pod2html --title="The Wireshark Network
 Analyzer 1.11.0"  --css=ws.css  --noindex  wireshark.pod > wireshark.html
 
I must be missing something in my environment, but dont know what.
Appreciate any pointers.
 
Jack
