Hello everyone,

today I tried to compile Wireshark for my laptop. (win10 - x64) Therefore I just did the same as I did before for win7 compilation mentioned in the dev guide. Right now I'm getting an Error using CMake:

Since Zlib is responsible for the error, I checked my Cygwin installation whether it is installed. Looking on the package list of cygwin, "zlib", "zlib-devel" and "zlib0"  v1.2.8.3 are installed.

Is it possible to compile Wireshark for win10 machines or did I just make a simple mistake, which I haven't notieced yet?



I haven't personally compiled on Win 10 yet, but I can't think why it wouldn't work.

What's in your D:\Development\Wireshark-Win64-Libs directory?  That should contain the downloaded zip packages required to build Wireshark, including zlib-128-ws.zip. which is then expanded by the setup target into the zlib-1.2.8-ws sub-directory.

What's the content of D:\Development\Wireshark-Win64-Libs\current_tag.txt?
