On MSVC 6.0 + PDSK, I had to remove the Wx from CFLAGS to allow
compilation to proceed due to a warning emitted when compiling
packet-parlay.c.
The warning was that the number of lines exceed an internal limit
(65536) and no more line number info would be issued.
The only fixes that I can see for this is to either split the file
somehow or add a #pragma warning, but as this is a generated file both
those may be a little tricky.
... or add /wd4049 to the Makefile.nmake CFLAGS, to ignore especially
this warning.
No go I'm afraid. MS VC 6.0 (AFAICT) doesn't allow you to specify
warnings to ignore from the command line. It's all or nothing.
Shall I just commit the makefile change for the moment?
I would prefer to follow Ronnies approach to have different lists for
the generated files (if the Makefile CFLAGS problem I've mentioned can
be solved).
However, the giop plugin is a special case here, as all files are
generated for this dissector (when I remember correct).
So adding /wd4049 is the way to go IMHO - this way the warnings won't
show up while compiling.
As that doesn't work and this issue is breaking the buildbot, shall I
just commit my earlier suggestion?
P.S. I compile under VC 6.0 just for historical reasons as my ws dev env
has been that way for years. I have VS 2005, so moving isn't an issue
for me, but should we consider dropping support for earlier VC versions.
This might clean up a few things.
I'm unsure if there's enough clean up to justify all developers to force
an update ...
It might remove a few queries to the list, and as VS 2005 Express is
free, I can't think anyone in the right mind would attempt to start WS
dev on VC 6.0. I suppose the main issue would be the buildbot.
