[Winpcap-users] undefined reference to certain winpcap functions

[Gianluca Varenni]

Due to some compilation issues, those listed functions are not available and 
exported in the stub file libwpcap.a shipped with the developer's pack of 
WinPcap 3.1 (but they are exported in the wpcap.lib file for Microsoft VC 
compilers). In order to use those functions with Cygwin/mingw, you need to 
use the developer's pack of WinPcap 4.0 alpha 1.

Have a nice day

Subject: [Winpcap-users] undefined reference to certain winpcap functions


hello,

i am using winpcap 3.1 with mingw on WinXP everything is compiling fine 
until i use the following functions:

pcap_open()
pcap_findalldevs_ex()
pcap_createsrcstr()
pcap_parsesrcstr()
pcap_setsampling()
pcap_remoteact_accept()
pcap_remoteact_list()
pcap_remoteact_close()
pcap_remoteact_cleanup()

after reading the winpcap FAQ's amonst other things, i found out that i had 
to add #define HAVE_REMOTE before including pcap.h
this did reduce the number of errors however i still get undefined 
references to certain pcap functions for example:

undefined reference to pcap_createsrcstr(...)

I am linking to the correct librarys and after reading the winpcap FAQ's 
again i found out that these functions are not exported from wpcap.dll. 
anyway my problem is that how do i use these functions with out getting any 
of the undefined reference errors.

thank you.
