[Winpcap-users] Packet32.h(209) : error C2079: 'IPAddress' uses undefined struct 'sockaddr_storage'

[Steven Smethurst]

Hello



I am trying to build one of the examples that came with Winpcap version 3.1

\Examples-remote\PacketDriver\GetMacAddress



And I am getting the following errors

Compiling...

GetMacAddress.c

c:\dev\sdk\wpdpack\include\packet32.h(209) : error C2079: 'IPAddress' uses
undefined struct 'sockaddr_storage'

undefined struct 'sockaddr_storage'

c:\dev\sdk\wpdpack\include\packet32.h(211) : error C2079: 'Broadcast' uses
undefined struct 'sockaddr_storage'





Snippet from c:\dev\sdk\wpdpack\include\packet32.h

--------------------------------------------------------------------

/*!

\brief Addresses of a network adapter.



This structure is used by the PacketGetNetInfoEx() function to return the
IP addresses associated with

an adapter.

typedef struct npf_if_addr {

struct sockaddr_storage SubnetMask; ///< Netmask for that
address.

struct sockaddr_storage Broadcast; ///< Broadcast
address.

}npf_if_addr;

--------------------------------------------------------------------







I am able to build all the \Examples-pcap example with out any problems.

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Steven.

Simply try to include *Winsock2.h*.
Here is MSDN:


SOCKADDR_STORAGE

The *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure stores socket address information.
Since the *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure is sufficiently large to store
IPv4 or IPv6 address information, or others, its use promotes
protocol-family and protocol-version independence, and simplifies
cross-platform development. Use the *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure in
place of the *sockaddr* <sockaddr_2.htm> structure.

typedef struct sockaddr_storage {
short ss_family;
char __ss_pad1[_SS_PAD1SIZE];
__int64 __ss_align;
char __ss_pad2[_SS_PAD2SIZE];
} SOCKADDR_STORAGE,
*PSOCKADDR_STORAGE;


Members

*ss_family*
Address family of the socket, such as AF_INET.
*__ss_pad1*
Reserved. Defined as a 48-bit pad that ensures *SOCKADDR_STORAGE*
achieves 64-bit alignment.
*__ss_align*
Reserved. Used by the compiler to align the structure.
*__ss_pad2*
Reserved. Used by the compiler to align the structure.


Remarks

Application developers use only the *ss_family* member of the
*SOCKADDR_STORAGE*. The remaining three members ensure the
*SOCKADDR_STORAGE* is padded appropriately to achieve 64-bit alignment.
Such alignment enables protocol-specific socket address data structures
to access fields within a *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure without alignment
problems. With its padding, the *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure is 128
bytes in length.

The member field of the *SOCKADDR_STORAGE* structure is isomorphic with
the *sockaddr* <sockaddr_2.htm> structure to enable simplified
transition from sockaddr to *SOCKADDR_STORAGE*.

For more information about platform-independent *SOCKADDR_STORAGE*
implementation recommendations, refer to RFC 2553, available at
www.ietf.org <http://www.ietf.org>.


Requirements

*Client: *Requires Windows XP.
*Server: *Requires Windows Server 2003.
*Header: *Declared in _*Winsock2.h*_.

Steven,

you probably installed the wrong version of the Platform SDK: the latest versions of the PSDK are *not* compatible with Visual Studio. A version of the Microsoft Platform Software Development Kit (SDK) that is compatible with Visual Studio 6 (Platform SDK February 2003) is available on the Microsoft web site at http://www.microsoft.com/msdownload/platformsdk/sdkupdate/psdk-full.htm. It can be ordered online at http://www.qmedia.ca/launch/psdk.htm, and it's also available to Microsoft MSDN subscribers on the Subscribers Downloads web site.

NOTE: after installing it, you should register it within visual studio, go to start->AllPrograms->Microsoft Platform sDK Feb2003->Visual Studio registration->register PSDK directories within visual studio.

Have a nice day
GV

Hello



This did work for me,

BUT



As it turns out I didn’t have the right Windows SDK installed and linked.

The solution is described here

http://www.winpcap.org/pipermail/winpcap-users/2006-June/001149.html



Thanks for your help

Hello



Thank you,

This solved my problem

I guess I downloaded an improper version of the windows SDK.



Thanks again for your help.
