+<h1>HDF5 Build and Install Instructions for Windows XP with MSVS .NET 2003</h1>
+<p style="TEXT-ALIGN: center">(Short Version)</p>
+<hr class="first" >
+<p class="note">Notes:</p>
+
+ <p>1. 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.</p>
+ <P>2. For detailed HDF5 build and install information, or if you have
+ trouble following any steps in the instructions, please refer to
+ INSTALL_Windows.html for further information.</P>
+ <p>3. For users who would like to build and test HDF5 package from the
+ command line, please refer to
+ INSATLL_Windows_From_Command_Line.txt.</p>
+ <p class="note">Warnings: Please read CAREFULLY about HDF5 build and install preconditions and
+notes in INSTALL_Windows.html before starting below procedures.</p>
+
+<hr class="second" >
+<h2>Preconditions:</h2>
+<hr class="second" >
+
+<h3>a. Setup path Visual Studio .Net 2003 Compiler. </h3>
+<p> Open "System" in Control Panel.</p>
+<p>On the "Advanced" tab, click "Environment Variables", click
+ "Path" in the "System variables" box, then click "Edit" and
+ add your Visual C++ .Net path (For example,
+ C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Common7\IDE)
+ into "Variable Value" and click "OK". </p>
+ <h3>b. Set up path for external libraries and headers</h3>
+ <p>Skip this part if you don't want to use ANY compression features
+ provided by HDF5. Read <A href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/windows/INSTALL_Windows.html#section5" target=_blank>Section V in INSTALL_WINDOWS.html</A>.
+ </p>
+ <p>You have to read this part even if you want to only use Zlib
+ or Szip. You also need to read <A href="http://hdf.ncsa.uiuc.edu/windows/INSTALL_Windows.html#section5" target=_blank>Section V in INSTALL_WINDOWS.html</A> . </p><p>Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ .Net and go to "Tools" and select
+ "Options". In the left pane of "Option" window poped up,
+ choose and extend "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:\zlib122\include, c:\szip\include)
+ from the directory list, add the header path
+ (c:\zlib122\include, c:\szip\include) to the
+ included directories. </p><p>Find the box "Show directories for", choose "Library files",
+ If you cannot find your Zlib and Szip library path
+ (for example, c:\zlib122\lib, c:\szip\dll)
+ from the directory list, add the library path
+ (c:\zlib122\lib, c:\szip\dll) to the library directories. </p>
+<hr class="second" >
+<h2>STEP 1: Building HDF5 Libraries and Tools</h2>
+<hr class="second" >
+<h3>1. Open all.dsw workspace</h3><p class="note">Notes:</p><p>Notes: all.sln is for command use only. Please open all.dsw not all.sln.</p><p>Invoke Microsoft Visual C++ .Net 2003. From the main
+ menu, go to "File" and select "Open Solution". In
+ the "Open Solution" window, Change "Files of type" to
+ "All Project Files". Choose "all.dsw" under the directory
+ c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\windows\proj\all. In the pop up window,
+ chooise "Yes To All" to convert all project files to Visual
+ C++ .Net project format.</p>
+
+<h3>2. Building HDF5 C and C++ Libraries </h3><p>Users can choose the desirable libraries to be built according
+ to the following describtion.</p> <ul class="intable"> <li><h4>2.1 If you don't want to build HDF5 C++ Libraries</h4> <p>Go to "Build" and select "Configuration Manager". Choose "Release"

+in c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5 directory.</p><p>hdf5check.bat has four options:</p>
+
+ <div style="TEXT-ALIGN: center">
+ <table border="1" style="BORDER-RIGHT: blue thin solid; BORDER-TOP: blue thin solid; BORDER-LEFT: blue thin solid; BORDER-BOTTOM: blue thin solid">

+ </div>
+
+ <p>Invoke a command prompt window and run hdf5check with appropriate
+ options.</p>
+ <p>Test results are saved into file:</p>
+ <ul class="normal">
+ <li>c:\MyHDFstuff\hdf5\check_results.txt</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>Check check_results.txt and there should be no failures at all.</p>
