After having successfully compiled wireshark on windows, I tried to create a windows installer. I am getting the following error on doing a 'nmake -f Makefile.nmake build wireshark installer'
**File: "C:Userst_sidharth1wswinwiresharkwin32vcredist_x86.exe" -> no files found.

Perhaps you need to install the vcredist.. ref the developers guide.
I have downloaded vcredist_x86.exe from microsoft.com and I have installed it. But while installation it does not ask for a path as to where I want to install that.
So where exactly do I need to install the vcredist_x86.exe? And on installation of this redistributable, what files exactly come up??
Hi,
Is it possible to make an installer without installing vcredist? Because, in my case, I'm not admin on my computer so I can't install vcredist.
I don't think so..redistributable files are necessary for the runtime.
Try downloading the msvcr90.dll from the internet and using it. It might work. But I am not completely sure on it.
What is the harm in trying afterall.
