Hi i tried with your idea ie removing xyzzy from the Xplugin_api.c dependency list . I am still not able to compile
This is the error message I get ..\plugins/plugin_table.h(36) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'Xp lugin_table.h': No such file or directory I found out that this file is infact not available. It seems that make process try to use 'Xplugin_table.h file when this file is not yest created (this and many other files are created by Python script I guess) I feel that compilation sequence should be changed so that the files includind X* files are compiled only ehen these files are available I will appreciate if some list member try to complile ethereal-0.9.14 on window. So that problems faced during compilation can be verified and if needed fixed. regards Naveen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matthijs Melchior" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Naveen Kumar Kaushik" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, July 31, 2003 1:53 PM Subject: Re: [Ethereal-dev] Problem in Window compile > Naveen Kumar Kaushik wrote: > > >Hi > >I was compiling ethereal with VC++ nmake utility. > >Make process got terminated while making plugin.c. > >Giving error Xplugin_table.h not found. > >Just to diagnose the problem i went through the plugins\Makefile.nmake > >only to find out that these Xplugin_table.h file (and several other) are > >generated by plugin_gen.py. > > > > > >Xplugin_api.c: xyzzy plugin_gen.py plugin_api.c > > $(PYTHON) plugin_gen.py xyzzy > > > > > >Now input to this script is generated by > >gcc -aux-info xyzzy -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I$(GLIB_DIR) -I.. -c plugin_api_list.c > > > >Python is availabe and path is set in config.nmake but gcc is not availabe > >on my system. > >I tried to use cygwin gcc by setting cygwin gcc bin path in config.nmake. > >But make process is still crashing at the same point . > > > >Please tell me what is the solution of this problem as I am struck. > >Naveen > > > > > Yes, this is a probelmatic dependency.
