Hello,

I am using the Visual studio 2010 for the building Wire shark Source . I
understand that Visual studio already has nmake utitiy.

I am getting the error as

Error 1 error U1065: invalid option '-' C:\Wireshark\NMAKE wireshark
Error 2 error MSB3073: The command "nmake -f Makefile.nmake distclean"
exited with code 2. C:\Program
Files\MSBuild\Microsoft.Cpp\v4.0\Microsoft.MakeFile.Targets 33 6 wire shark

I tried using the nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools

Still I am getting the same error Error 1 error U1065: invalid option '-'

Steps listed in the Website may not be up to date for Visual studio 2010
  source building  in Windows. Can Any one help me in this.


See:

Please let us know if the info helps to fix your problem.

If so, we'll need to update the Developer's Guide (or add a test to the makefile.nmake or something ....).
