[libdnet-devel] Compiling libdnet for VC++ .NET

[Ronak S. <rsu...@gm...>]

Hi,

I had two questions which I was hoping to get some help with.

1. I was interested in creating the libdnet project for VC++ .NET and
wanted to know how feasible would that be. In some sense I'm a noob to
libdnet and hence all pointers would be useful. The reason I'm looking
at this is because we are trying to use dnet.lib with the latest Nmap
Win32 release. For that I need to create a .vcproj out of the existing
libdnet sources.

2. I was following the INSTALL instructions for compiling dnet.lib on
Cygwin+MinGW. While it looks like my setup problems, I keep getting
this error:
"gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory"
I have done the default Cygwin+MinGW installations. I was wondering if
anyone else has encountered this problem.
I was getting gcc related problems even in the Python&VC++  compilation.
"collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
error: command 'gcc' failed with exit status 1"

Since libdnet is supported on the Win32 platform, I was keen to get a
dnet.lib compiled here.

Thanks for the help!

Cheers,

Ronak
