Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Directions for Compiling WireShark1.2 for 64-bit Windows?

Hello,

 

I need to compile WireShark 1.2 with custom plugins for my lab on a 64-bit Windows server.  I couldn’t find any directions on the “Developer’s Guide.”  Does anyone know where I might find these directions, or can someone roughly lay them out for me?  Is it as similar to compiling for 32-bit windows?

 

I also read that (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_Studio_Express) the “Express Edition” of Visual Studio does not include a 64-bit installer.  Does that mean I will have to purchase Visual Studio?

 

Thanks!
