Hi,
I am pretty new in working with cross compilers. I want to create a windows executable for wireshark from ubuntu. With some online research I figured out that it can be done using mingw but I am unable to do so.
I first installed mingw from the synaptic package manager and then went to the wireshark source directory and tried running the below command:
./configure --prefix=/usr/i586-mingw32 --host=i586-mingw32msvc --build=x86_64-linux
This gives me two different errors:
1) configure: error: funtion socket not found
2) configure: error: Header file pcap.h not found; if you installed libpcap
from source, did you also do "make install-incl", and if you installed a
binary package of libpcap, is there also a developer's package of libpcap,
and did you also install that package?
Any inputs to resolve this would be appreciated.
Thanks
Anoop
