[Winpcap-users] Sample compile failure using MS VC 6

[Gianluca Varenni]

There is no page for such list.

Compilers: as of WinPcap 4.1.2, the official supported compiler is Visual Studio 2005 SP1. I had feedback that the samples compile just fine with 2008 (and probably 2010). The samples in the "examples-pcap" folder contain GNU Makefiles for Cygwin. Cygwin is in general supported as a compiler (although we cannot test all the possible versions of cygwin).

Operating systems: WinPcap 4.1.2 supports Windows NT4, 2000, XP, 2003, Vista, 2008, Win7, 2008R2 x86 and x64. 

Let me know if this answers your questions

Have a nice day

Thanks Gianluca, I'll try that.  Is there a page somewhere that lists supported compilers/operating systems?

  Francis,

  although the project files for Visual Studio 6 are still provided for some of the samples, VS6 is no longer officially supported. I suggest you to use Visual Studio 2005.

  Thanks Chuck.

  I don't know if something got mangled in the email you saw, but the actual lines were:

  /* MSVC compiler */
  #ifndef _UINTPTR_T_DEFINED
  #ifdef  _WIN64
  typedef unsigned __int64    uintptr_t;
  #else
  typedef _W64 unsigned int   uintptr_t;
  #endif
  #define _UINTPTR_T_DEFINED
  #endif

  There were no comment delimiters after the #else statement.

  pcap-stdinc.h is also the one of the standard distributed header files which I can't imagine should contain errors,

Looks to me like the lines

#else/
*typedef _W64 unsigned int   uintptr_t;*/

should be

#else /*typedef _W64 unsigned int   uintptr_t;*/

  I am completely new to Winpcap but would love to try out some of its
capabilities.

I have tried compiling the basic_dump.c sample provided but it fails
with multiple errors.  The first error is in pcap-stdinc.h, line 79 (in
bold italic below)

/* MSVC compiler */
#ifndef _UINTPTR_T_DEFINED
#ifdef  _WIN64
typedef unsigned __int64    uintptr_t;
#else/
*typedef _W64 unsigned int   uintptr_t;*/
#endif
#define _UINTPTR_T_DEFINED
#endif

the error reported was "C2054: expected '(' to follow '_W64'.

I am using Microsoft Visual C++ Version 6 with service pack 5 installed
under XP SP 3.

I would be grateful if anyone could shed some light on this.
