To test the installation with the examples;
Create a directory to run the examples.
Copy HDF5Examples folder to this directory.
Copy HDF5_Examples.cmake to this directory.
- Edit HDF5_Examples.cmake line 8 to set INSTALLDIR to where HDF5 is installed.

+ with the CTEST_SOURCE_NAME script option.
+ The default installation folder is defined as "@CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX@".
