<<WS_MSVC_NORETURN is also used in other files: dumpcap.c, epan/except.c, epan/proto.h

Do you have to comment it also, or only its call in epan/except.h file?>>

 

 

No we comment ‘WS_MSVC_NORETURN ‘ only inside epan/except.h


Then there is definitely something weird / wrong on your side and it will be hard to provide you more support without extra information.
As said earlier, a possible explanation would be a missing inclusion of config.h file before except.h (it will trigger exactly the same kind of warnings), something that is not done in the default Wireshark source code. So if you really have the issue with a vanilla source code, I'm out of ideas sorry. Maybe someone else will come up with something else.

Hi,

 

<<WS_MSVC_NORETURN is supposed to be defined as:
#define WS_MSVC_NORETURN    __declspec(noreturn)

in the auto generated config.h file found at the root of your working copy.

Do you confirm you have it defined in your local copy?

Does it happen when you compile a specific file? If yes, do you have config.h included prior to except.h inclusion?>>

The definition ‘ WS_MSVC_NORETURN  __declspec(noreturn)’  is present in our config.h file. No, the problem is general and not related to any particular file

WS_MSVC_NORETURN is also used in other files: dumpcap.c, epan/except.c, epan/proto.h

Do you have to comment it also, or only its call in epan/except.h file?
