The Windows build for 2.0 has moved to CMake.  I'm in the process of submitting a change for the Developers Guide docs, but for now README.cmake in the top level source tree should have enough to get you going,

Nmake is still kind of supported, but nor for long.  The Win32.mak issue is detailed in the Developers Guide setup: https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html#ChSetupMSVC

Thanks for the pointer. Rummaging in packet-giop.c it looks like requests and replies are stored
in a hash table giop_complete_reply_hash and the key used for this is packet_info->fd->num

Does that look right, am I on the right track?

If so, then I guess I need to look at where this number comes from and if it is
used for anything else. Any help anyone?

I had a quick look at 2.0. So far I've fallen over at the first hurdle. I tried following
the build instructions and the first nmake -f Makefile.nmake verify_tools fails
with a file win32.mak not found error. So I guess I'm looking at the wrong instructions.

Can someone point me at how to build 2.0 for Windows.

Thanks
