-1. Drivers we support
-
- The default driver on windows we support is sec2 driver. However, stdio
- driver is also supported. If you want to use stdio driver in your
- application, you may set environment variable HDF5_DRIVER to "stdio".
-
- On windows XP, the following steps should be followed to set the
- environment variable,
-
- a) Go to Control panel and find "system",
- b) Click "system" and choose "advanced",
- c) Choose Environment Variables
- d) Add new variable "HDF5_DRIVER"
- e) set the "HDF5_DRIVER" to "stdio"
-
- Reminder: if you don't want to use stdio driver, please remember to
- delete the environment variable "HDF5_DRIVER" or change the variable
- value to "sec2".
