<para>Most of these tools have their roots on UNIX like

<title>Win32: Cygwin</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>Cygwin provides a lot of UNIX based tools on the Win32
|
|
|
|
platform. It uses a UNIX emulation layer which might be a bit
|
|
|
|
slower compared to the native Win32 tools, but at an acceptable
|
|
|
|
level. The installation and update is pretty easy and done
|
|
|
|
through a single (web based) setup.exe.</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>The native Win32 tools will typically be a bit faster,
|
|
|
|
but more complicated to install, as you would have to download
|
|
|
|
the tools from different webpages, and install them in
|
|
|
|
different ways, tweaking the PATH and alike.</para>

|
<title>Note!</title>
|
|
|
|
<para>As there's no Win32 native bash version available, at
|
|
|
|
least a basic installation of cygwin is required in any
|
|
|
|
case.</para>

|

</note>

2007-09-10 17:10:42 +00:00

|
|
<para>Although Cygwin consists of several separate packages,
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
the installation and update is done through a single setup.exe,
|
|
|
|
which acts similar to other web based installers. All tools
|
2008-01-15 21:48:16 +00:00
|
|
|
will be installed into one base folder, the default is
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
<filename>C:\cygwin</filename>.</para>
|
2008-01-15 21:48:16 +00:00
|
|
|
<para>You will find this network based setup.exe at:
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
<ulink url="http://www.cygwin.com/" />. Click on one of the
|
2008-01-15 21:48:16 +00:00
|
|
|
"Install Cygwin now" appearances to download the
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
<filename>setup.exe</filename>. After the download completed,
|
2008-01-15 21:48:16 +00:00
|
|
|
start this
|
2007-09-10 17:10:42 +00:00
|
|

<filename>setup.exe</filename> on your machine.</para>
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
<para>The setup will ask you for some settings, the defaults
|
|
|
|
should usually work well for a first start. At the "Select
|
|
|
|
Packages" page, you'll need to select some additional packages,
|
|
|
|
which are not installed by default. Navigate to the required
|
|
|
|
Category/Package row and click on the "Skip" item in the "New"
|
|
|
|
column so it shows a version number for the required
|
|
|
|
package</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>After clicking the Next button several times, the setup
|
|
|
|
will then download and install the selected packages (this may
|
|
|
|
take a while, depending on the package size).</para>

|
|
|
|
shell, which is similar to the command line
|
|
|
|
(command.com/cmd.exe) in Win32, but much more powerful.</para>

The official Wireshark 1.8.x releases are compiled using
|
|
|
|
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 SP1.

The official 1.2, 1.4, and 1.6 releases are and were compiled using

2010-10-29 22:31:45 +00:00

installation of a separate Visual C++ Redistributable package. See

there are legal issues involved in using newer versions of

<para>Unfortunately, it is believed by many that the

linking with GPL'ed programs. This belief is probably due

2009-12-20 14:49:49 +00:00
|
|

to an improper interpretation of the

<listitem>

<para>Other maintainers believe that the GPL itself

forbids using Visual Studio 2003, since one of the

required support libraries (MSVCR71.DLL) does not ship
|
|
|

with the Windows operating system. This is also a

2009-12-20 14:49:49 +00:00
|
|

wrongful interpretation, and the

<para>Depending on the Microsoft compiler version you use,

some binary files coming from Microsoft might

2009-12-20 14:49:49 +00:00

|
|
be required to be installed on Windows machine to run
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
Wireshark. On a developer machine, the compiler setup
|
|
|
|
installs these files so they are available - but they might
|
|
|
|
not be available on a user machine!</para>
|
|
|
|
<para>This is especially true for the C runtime DLL
|
|
|
|
(msvcr*.dll), which contains the implementation of ANSI and
|
|
|
|
alike functions, e.g.: fopen(), malloc(). The DLL is named
|
|
|
|
like: msvcr<version>.dll, an abbreviation for
|
|
|
|
"MicroSoft Visual C Runtime". For Wireshark to work, this DLL
|
|
|
|
must be available on the users machine.</para>

|
<para>The Windows Platform SDK (PSDK) or Windows SDK is a free
|
|
|
|
(as in beer) download and contains platform specific headers and
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
libraries (e.g. windows.h, WSock32.lib, ...). As new Windows
|
2012-09-23 20:35:09 +00:00
|
|
|
features evolve in time, updated SDK's become available that
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
include new and updated API's.</para>

<para>When you purchase a commercial Visual Studio, it will
|
2012-09-23 20:35:09 +00:00
|
|
|
include an SDK. The free (as in beer) downloadable C compiler
|
2007-09-10 17:10:42 +00:00
|
|
|
versions (VC++ 2005 Express, .NET Framework, ...) do not
|
2012-09-23 20:35:09 +00:00
|
|
|
contain an SDK - you'll need to download a PSDK in order to
|
2007-01-21 04:48:49 +00:00
|
|
|
have the required C header files and libraries.</para>
|
2012-09-23 20:44:21 +00:00
|
|
|
<para>Older versions of the SDK should also work. However, the

command to set the environment settings will be different, try

search for SetEnv.* in the SDK directory.</para>

<para>Prior to Windows Vista, the name "Platform SDK" was used;
|
|
|
|
starting with Vista, the name was changed just to "Windows
|
|
|
|
Software Development Kit" or "Windows SDK". The full names of the
|
|
|
|
SDKs can be misleading; for example, the SDK for Vista was called
|
|
|
|
the "Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit for Windows Vista
|
|
|
|
and .NET Framework 3.0 Runtime Components", which really means the
|
|
|
|
Windows SDK for Windows Vista and Platforms (like WinXP) that have
|
|
|
|
the .NET 3.0 runtime installed.</para>
