[Wireshark-dev] Wireshark PIDL generated dissectors

Matthieu,

I committed 0010-frsrpc-Regenerate-frsrpc-due-to-changes-in-the-pidl-.patch and 0016-Regenerate-the-dnserver.patch with the necessary changes to get it to compile on Windows to r53067.  As the commit message mentions, I think the PIDL generator may need to be updated in order for dissectors to compile on Windows.

Michael

I may have slightly misspoke about the patch in bug 9301 causing          the compile errors, but the patch in bug 9301 had the same          compile errors on Windows as the generated dissectors.  I          originally committed the patch in r52734 before realizing the          compiler errors which I corrected in r52735 (with a simple          cast). 
      
    Yes I saw your patch for the bug        9301. But in theory I could resubmit the two patches because the        errors weren't in the patch but in the use it made of the        funcion in bug 9301 
          
        
I don't have access to a Linux box, but I suspect if you          used Linux to generate the patch in bug 9301, you won't see          this issue either with the generated dissectors. It appears          the generated dissectors need extra casting to compile on          Windows and I didn't just want to make the fix in the          Wireshark source.
      
    Also do you have some kind of buildfarm, I'm ok to build patches    there before submissions.
    
    Matthieu.

for how it was fixed.  Not sure if the PIDL compiler has to be changed for this 
one.
Can you tell me what were the compile errors on linux, it's seems just 
fine with just this patch on top of the recent svn trunk.

I just have warnings for dnsserver:
