WinDump fails to compile on latest libpcap

[Yang Luo <hsluoyb () gmail com>]

Hi list,

I'm compiling WinDump on latest Npcap/libpcap there:
https://github.com/hsluoyz/windump because I need to use it to test my
functions sometimes. But I got compile errors.

1>------ Build started: Project: WinDump, Configuration: Debug x64 ------
1>  getopt.c
1>  util.c
1>j:\github_repos\windump\tcpdump-stdinc.h(56): fatal error C1083: Cannot
open include file: 'net/netdb.h': No such file or directory
1>  strcasecmp.c
1>j:\github_repos\windump\tcpdump-stdinc.h(56): fatal error C1083: Cannot
open include file: 'net/netdb.h': No such file or directory
1>  smbutil.c
1>j:\github_repos\windump\tcpdump-stdinc.h(56): fatal error C1083: Cannot
open include file: 'net/netdb.h': No such file or directory
1>  setsignal.c

Also the similar issue on bittypes.h.

The cause is that WinPcap has these two files:

\libpcap\Win32\Include\net\netdb.h
\libpcap\Win32\Include\bittypes.h

But libpcap doesn't have it. Even if I checked the libpcap 1.0.0 release,
they are also not there. So I don't think libpcap has deleted them after a
certain time. libpcap never added them before.

Given that WinDump is kind of "official" example to use libpcap/Npcap API,
it's not good that they can't compile.

So I want to ask that should libpcap add those two files to its code? If
not, should we change the WinDump code to not use it? Thanks!



Cheers,
Yang
