[Winpcap-users] compiling the src of winpcap 4.02

[Gianluca Varenni]

WinPcap 4.0.x was still compiled with the DDK, but it should compile ok with WDK6000/6001 (although I haven't checked). inPcap 4.1 betas get compiled with the WDK6000.
I think that readme-visualC is completely outdated and should removed. More updated instructions on how to compile the driver can be found in the docs section of the WinPcap developer's pack.

Regarding the compilation error you are encountering, you should not put the sources in a path containing spaces (like "C:\documents and settings\...."). The build utilities from the MS DDK/WDK do not support paths containing spaces.

Have a nice day

  Hi
  I get compiling errors when I try to compile the src on win xp
  I follow the guide how to compile the driver for Windows 2000/XP/2003 from the readme-visualC file.
  1. I don´t have the DDK becaus I can't download it and MS writes that the WDK replaces the old DDK.
  2. readme-visualC file says that I should use the command Compile2k but I don't have it, just CompileDriver.bat

  When I run the bat file I get the following output:

  PREfast did not appear to do anything.
  If there was no error on your command line, it may be
  that your build command is overriding PREfast's settings.
  The prior result log was retained.



  I have looked at the faqs about this and if someone else had the same problem but I can't find anything.
  Someone have a clue what to do?
