I deleted the source and build directories, and then did a fresh git clone.  
Build prep ran fine and I've just run a successful build.

Bets regards...Paul

Thanks guys.  I'll start by deleting everything and starting from scratch.

Hi,

It's been a few months since I built Wireshark.  I'm using the same machine as 
I have used for my last successful build.  I pulled the latest Wireshark code 
and ran the CMAKE command to generate the build files.  I get this:

C:\Development\wsbuild64>cmake -DENABLE_CHM_GUIDES=on -G "Visual Studio 12 
Win64" ..\wireshark
-- Generating build using CMake 3.3.0
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:80 (find_package):
 By not providing "FindPowerShell.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
  has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "PowerShell", but CMake did not find one.

That's an odd CMake error.

We provide a FindPowerShell.cmake module in the source distribution, so I don't 
understand why CMake is complaining about not finding one.


  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "PowerShell" with
  any of the following names:

    PowerShellConfig.cmake
    powershell-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "PowerShell" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
  "PowerShell_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
  "PowerShell" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
  been installed.

And every Windows machine I've seen since Vista has had Powershell on the path, 
so why it shouldn't be found is also odd.



-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!
See also "C:/Development/wsbuild64/CMakeFiles/CMakeOutput.log".
See also "C:/Development/wsbuild64/CMakeFiles/CMakeError.log".

On line 80 of CMakeList.txt it says:

   find_package(PowerShell REQUIRED)

I can confirm that PowerShell is installed on the PC, but I guess that's not 
what this error is indicating.

Any advice?

Thanks and regards...Paul


Thoughts on the issues:

  1.  Presumably you've updated the source to latest master and have no local 
changes?

  1.  Presumably you're using the same "setup" for the command shell you were 
using previously?

  1.  Delete your build directory and run the CMake generation step again (or 
just delete CMakeCache.txt in the build dir).  This is necessary whenever any 
of the CMake cached paths to libraries and executables change.
Pro tip for Windows Wireshark dev: Use a VM.  This allows you to create and 
manage the build environment keeping it all just for Wireshark.
