Build issue on Windows 7, 64bit with MSVC2010

Question

Hi,

I have a build issue when building Wireshark on Windows 7, 64bit and MSVC2010. The error log returned is:

Did you run nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup before trying to build Wireshark?

If not, do so.

Thanks for the response - yes the project was built from within Visual Studio using the wireshark.sln file provided in the SVN download - the environment was built according to the details in the Win32 setup including the CygWin installation, Python download etc.. Running the setup gives:

c:\WireShark>

Other than the unzip command (which seems to work fine) the result is as per the documentation until the last step.

The error occurs irrespective of the command line build or the MSVC build.

Actually, not:

unzip:  cannot find either /cygdrive/c/Wireshark-win64-libs/gtk+-bundle_2.24.14-1.1_win64ws.zip or /cygdrive/c/Wireshark-win64-libs/gtk+-bundle_2.24.14-1.1_win64ws.zip.zip.

What does the command dir c:\Wireshark-win64-libs print?

@Richard Drayton

As per my answer, do not use the solution file, it is outdated and doesn’t work, you must build from the command prompt.

Your issue with the command prompt is the oracle version of unzip:

unzip: /cygdrive/c/oraclexe/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/server/bin/unzip.

I don’t know what it is, but it doesn’t behave like a normal unzip. You’ll need to remove it from your path and try again with nmake -f Makefile.nmake setup.

It looks like you're trying to build from within Visual Studio with a makefile project. That won't work, you must use a command prompt prepared as per section 2.2 Win32 setup of the developer's guide. For a successful build you must follow the guide exactly.
