 *                     with Windows XP (Short Version)                  *
 ************************************************************************
 
-Notes: This short instruction is written for users who want to quickly
-       build HDF5 library and tools from the HDF5 source code package
-       with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003 but do not want to know 
-       HDF5 building and installation details on Windows XP.
-       
-       Visual Studio .NET 2003 is NOT supported on Windows Vista, as Microsoft
-       has ended their support.  Also, we do not support building 64-bit
-       libraries or Fortran libraries with Visual Studio .NET 2003.  If you
-       need any of these features, please upgrade to Visual STudio 2005.
-         
-       For detailed HDF5 build and install information, or if you have
-       trouble following any steps in the instructions, please refer to
-       INSTALL_Windows.txt for further information.
-      
-       For users who would like to build and test HDF5 package from the
-       command line, please refer to
-       INSATLL_Windows_From_Command_Line.txt.  Note, however, that building
-       from the command line requires Visual Studio 2005.
-
-WARNINGS:
-
-Please read CAREFULLY about HDF5 build and install preconditions and 
-notes in INSTALL_Windows.txt before starting below procedures.

-      You have to read this part even if you want to only use Zlib         
-      or Szip.  You also need to read Section V in INSTALL_Windows.txt.                           
-                                                                         
-      Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ .Net and go to "Tools" and select             
-      "Options". In the left pane of  "Option" window poped up,
-      choose and expand "Projects", Click on "VC++ Directories".
-      In the right pane, Find the box "Show directories for", choose

-      (for example, c:\zlib123\include, c:\szip\include)                   
-      from the directory list, add the header path                         
-      (c:\zlib123\include, c:\szip\include) to the

-========================================================================
-                Building HDF5 C/C++ Libraries with VS .NET
-========================================================================
-
-   1. Run batch file copy_hdf.bat
-
-      Go to  c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\windows and run copy_hdf.bat. This process will 
-      copy all the necessary batch files, windows specific source codes and 
-      text files saved under c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\windows directory to the 
-      corresponding directories under hdf5.
-
-   2. Invoke Microsoft Visual Studio compiler
-
-      Invoke Microsoft Visual Studio.  From the main menu, go to "File" and 
-      select the "Open Solution" option. Then open the
-      c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\windows_vnet\proj\all\all.dsw workspace.
-
-      You should find Windows project files listed as "all", "big", etc. on the
-      left.
-
-   3. (Optional) Disable HDF5 C++ and High level C++
-   
-      In HDF5 1.8, C++ and HL C++ libraries are built by default.  To opt-out,
-      you must explicitly disable them.
-
-      4.1 Skip this step if you do want to build HDF5 High-Level C++ libraries
-
-          Go to "Project" and select "Project Dependencies".  Select "all", and 
-          disable all of the following projects:
-
-            hdf5_hl_cpp
-            hdf5_hl_cppdll
-            hl_test_table_cpp
-            hl_test_table_cppdll
-      
-      4.2 Skip this step if you do want to build HDF5 High-Level libraries
-
-          Go to "Project" and select "Project Dependencies".  Select "all", and 
-          disable all of the project files listed in the previous step, as well
-          as the following projects:
-
-             hdf5_hl
-             hdf5_hldll
-             hl_test_image
-             hl_test_imagedll
-             hl_test_lite
-             hl_test_litedll
-             hl_test_table
-             hl_test_tabledll
-             hl_test_ds
-             hl_test_dsdll
-             hl_test_packet
-             hl_test_packetdll
-   
-   Click on "OK", From the main menu, choose "Build"-> "Build" or  
-   "Rebuild ALL" to build both release and debug version of HDF5   
-   Libraries.                                                                                           
-             
-
-   4. Select "Build", then Select "Configuration Manager".
-
-      5.1 To build debug static libraries, debug multithreaded DLLs, and tests:
-
-      In "Active Solution Configuration", select "Debug". Select "Close". 
-      Select "Build" -> "Build Solution" or "Rebuild Solution" to build debug 
-      version of project "all".
-
-      5.2 To build release static libraries, multithreaded DLLs and tests:
-
-      In "Active Solution Configuration", select "Release". Select "Close". 
-      Select "Build" -> "Build Solution" or "Rebuild Solution" to build release 
-      version of project "all".
-
-      Both debug and release versions must be built.
-
-      Warning messages can be ignored.
-             
-========================================================================
-               Testing HDF5 C/C++ Libraries with VS .NET
-========================================================================
-
-HDF5 libraries and tools should be tested to make sure that they were
-built correctly. c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\hdf5check.bat was provided to test
-HDF5 libraries and tools.
-
-hdf5check.bat has the following options:
-   
-   hdf5check                     test HDF5 C library and tools only
-      
-   hdf5check enablecpp           test HDF5 C/C++ libraries and tools
-
-
-Invoke a command prompt window and run hdf5check with appropriate option.
-Users are encouraged to pipe the test output into a file.  You should find
-no "*FAILED*" marks.
-
-If you want to test HDF5 libraries and tools one by one, please refer to
-Section II, step 2 in INSTALL_Windows.txt.

-========================================================================
-                    Installing HDF5 C/C++ Libraries
-========================================================================
-
-Run the batch file c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\installhdf5lib.bat to install 
-all HDF5 libraries and tools into c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\hdf5lib directory.
-
-========================================================================
-               Building HDF5 Examples and Applications
-========================================================================
-
-Building HDF5 Examples is Optional. Please read Section II, step 4 and 
-the following part in INSTALL_Windows.txt for detailed information.
-
-
-
+Notes: We no longer support building HDF5 using Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003.
