* 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.
-
-
-========================================================================
- Preconditions
-========================================================================
-
- 1. Set up path for external libraries and headers
-
- Skip this part if you don't want to use ANY compression features
- provided by HDF5. Please do read Section V in INSTALL_Windows.txt.
-
- 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
- "Include files", if you can not find your Zlib and Szip
- header path
- (for example, c:\zlib123\include, c:\szip\include)
- from the directory list, add the header path
- (c:\zlib123\include, c:\szip\include) to the
- included directories.
-
- Find the box "Show directories for", choose "Library files",
- If you cannot find your Zlib and Szip library path
- (for example, c:\zlib123\dll, c:\szip\dll)
- from the directory list, add the library path
- (c:\zlib123\dll, c:\szip\dll) to the library directories.
-
-========================================================================
- 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.
