file 'win32.mak' not found Stop.

Question

I tried to build wireshark under WinXP + MC VS 2008 by "2.2. Win32: Step-by-Step Guide", but I'm having trouble with nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools. I got:

E:\work\wireshark\trunk-1.6>nmake -f Makefile.nmake all

Microsoft (R) Program Maintenance Utility Version 9.00.21022.08

Makefile.nmake(10) : fatal error U1052: file 'win32.mak' not found
Stop.

I Google'd it and found this, but it didn't help. I tried putting the win32.mak file in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\Include, but nmake cannot see it...

Please help

1	You shouldn't have to edit Makefile.nmake. If nmake can't find win32.mak then that's a strong indication that your build environment isn't set up correctly. Did you run `vcvarsall.bat` before running `nmake`? link answered 24 Jun '11, 09:58 Gerald Combs ♦♦ 1.8k●7●14●37 accept rate: 22%

You should install Windows sdk (http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?displaylang=en&id=3138).

Then you will found Wind32.mak file in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0\Include.
