Compilers
---------
MS Visual C++ Version 6
This is the common compiler used for building Ethereal on win32.
MS Visual C++ Version 7 / VC.NET
Currently unsupported for two reasons:
-the licence agreement does NOT allow you to compile GPL code.
-there are serious problems in using DLL's compiled with MS VC6.
Cygwins GCC
Although currently still experimental, there is ongoing progress
supporting it. See section below for instructions.
