Problem:
When attempting to compile gopacket on Windows 10 for 64-bit (GOARCH=amd64), an error occurs indicating "File in wrong format" when adding wpcap symbols to the binary.
Solution:
To compile gopacket on Windows 64-bit successfully, follow these steps:
- Install Go for 64-bit (go_amd64).
- Install TDM GCC x64 and add its binaries to the PATH variable.
- Add the TDM-GCC x86_64-w64-mingw32bin directory to the PATH variable.
- Install Winpcap.
- Download the Winpcap developer's pack and extract it to C:.
As the Winpcap developer's pack lacks Linux static libraries (libwpcap.a and libpacket.a), generate them manually:
- Copy wpcap.dll and packet.dll to a temporary folder.
- Run gendef on both files to generate .def files.
- Generate the static libraries using dlltool with the following commands:
dlltool --as-flags=--64 -m i386:x86-64 -k --output-lib libwpcap.a --input-def wpcap.def dlltool --as-flags=--64 -m i386:x86-64 -k --output-lib libpacket.a --input-def packet.def
- Copy libwpcap.a and libpacket.a to C:WpdPackLibx64.
With these steps completed, gopacket should compile without errors on Windows 64-bit.
