Cygwin and mingw support need testing.
I have done some work with cygwin but it has taken a back burner as I concentrated on VC++.
Currently when Win32 support is stated, we mean VC++ Studio (6.0) and VC++ .NET Kirby

Hi,

In your libnet1.1.1 PORT doc it is stated that cygwin is supported
(below)

• Cygwin
  • requires winpcap (http://netgroup-serv.polito.it/winpcap) and pcap

        header files copied to /usr/include/pcap/ and the library files to

        be copied to /usr/lib/

I am having trouble knowing what pcap header and library files to copy

from and where to get them. I have downloaded the winpcap 3.0 source

code from here ... http://winpcap.polito.it/install/default.htm

(http://winpcap.polito.it/install/bin/wpcapsrc_3_0.zip)

As you can see below when I try to install libnet on my cygwin terminal

It fails. Can you please help me with this ? I need to use your library

for a University project and it is the only decent packet forming program

I can find for win32. I (am using Windows XP)

Thanks for your time,

Matt
