Notice
- The CMake build system for Wireshark is not yet ready for
- building the whole system. You'll still need autofoo to buld it.
- The only thing that can be build is dumpcap, and even that one
- requires that you successfully ran autofoo prior to running cmake
- (e.g. config.h is not yet build, lex and yacc are not run).
+ To find out the current state of the cmake implementaion for
+ Wireshark, please take a look at "What needs to be done?" below.
Basically this is an experiment and if we find out that it works
and we like cmake more than autofoo we might switch one day.

+What works?
+===========
-only dumpcap and libwiretap have been done, and even those rely on
-autofoo having been run before:
+All the executables now build on my system (32bit openSUSE 11.1) from
+clean source.
-- Add proper GTK1/GLIB2/GLIB1 detection (currently links against gtk2
- to pull in glib2).
-- Create config.h
-- Autocreated source files in wiretap need to be build from .l, .y files.
+What needs to be done?
+======================
-All other tools and libs still need to be built.
+- Test detection/build with a few remaining packages
+- Add back -Werror flags.
+- Redo glib2 and gtk2 find modules.
+- Add back platform specific objects.
+- Fix places in the cmake files marked as todo.
+- Add back (working) install target.
+- Build source package (using CPack).
+- Build rpm package (using CPack).
+- Add back checkAPI target.
+- Test and add support for other platforms (BSDs, OSX,
+ Solaris, Win32, Win64, ...)
