I tried compiling wireshark 1.2 pre1 on Windows using VS2008EE. It failed. Here's the error:
tvbuff.c(45) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'zlib.h': No such file or directory I downloaded the source, extracted it, modified config.nmake to change MSVC_VARIANT from MSVC2008 to MSVC2008EE, then ran: nmake -f makefile.nmake setup nmake -f makefile.nmake distclean nmake -f makefile.nmake Did I miss something or is there a patch to tvbuff.c not part of the 1.2 branch? Also, the release notes for 1.2 at http://www.wireshark.org/docs/relnotes/wireshark-1.2.0.html indicates: * Official Windows packages are now built using Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 SP1. ... but it doesn't specifically say whether support for VS6 is dropped or not. I have not been able to build under VS6 for a long time, and I know there was some discussion on the wireshark mailing lists about it, so I'm just wondering: -> Is VS6 still supported with 1.2? -> If yes, any hints on how to get it work? -> If not, are there any plans to support it? -> If no plans to support VS6 anymore, should it be mentioned in the above release notes and/or elsewhere?
