How to make a user dissector in wireshark?

Question

I am using window 8, 64-bit.
I follow the steps from wireshark tutorial. I download files from code project. I have installed cygwin but when I try nmake Makefile.nmake, I get -bash: nmake: command not found.

How to solve this problem?
I also found this, I have already installed Visual Studio 2013, should I have the nmake also?

Answer 1

You surely don't have nmake on your computer. Open the Cygwin's setup.exe, follow the steps, then you'll be face to face with a list, type nmake in the search field and DL it.

EDIT: As said in the comments, add the nmake (located in your visual studio directory) path to your environment variable PATH, and beware of spaces for directories like Program Files (x86).
