Purpose: Maintenance for 1.6 release Description: HISTORY.txt was not updated in 1.5 branch since 1.2.0 release. RELEASE.txt had a lot of redundant info that is now in HISTORY.txt INSTALL_Windows_withF90.txt was lost in 1.5 branch. Solution: I updated HISTORY.txt to include release history up to 1.4.5 release. After that I removed all information related to the 1.4.* releases from RELEASE.txt file. "Platforms Tested" section was brought up to date based on the information provided by developers for 1.6.0 first round of testing. RELEASE.txt still needs a lot of work. INSTALL_Windows_withF90.txt is also a first draft, more work is needed. Platforms tested: N/A Misc. update:

+===============================================================================
+ HDF5 Fortran90 Library Build and Testing Instructions for Windows NNT/2000
+ with DEC Visual Fortran V6.0
+===============================================================================
+
+
+Preconditions
+
+ 1. These instructions are for users who wish to build the C and
+ Fortran90 libraries. If you are interested only in the C library,
+ see INSTAll_Windows.txt or INSTAll_codewarrior.txt.
+
+ 2. MS VC++ V 6.0, DEC Visual Fortran V6.0, and WinZip must be installed
+ prior to building the HDF5 library.
+
+
+ 3. Download the hdf5-1.* distribution archive and run WinZip to unpack
+ the source code. The code will be unpacked into the hdf5\ directory.
+
+ 4. GNU zlib and szlib library should be installed on the machine.
+
+Note:
+ Only static libraries are built for this release.
+
+Building the HDF5 Fortran and C libraries
+
+ 1. Unpack all_withf90.zip, found in the hdf5\ directory, into the
+ hdf5\ directory.
+ 2. Set up library and include directories to point to zlib and szlib
+ libraries on your system.
+ 3. Go to the hdf5\proj\ directory and click on the file all.dsw.
+ This will invoke MS VC++.
+
+ 4. Select "Build", then select "Set Active Configuration".
+
+ "all -- Win32 Debug" to build debug versions of
+ single-threaded static libraries and tests.
+
+ "all -- Win32 Release" to build release versions of
+ single-threaded static libraries and tests.
+
+ When the debug or release build is completed, the directories
+ listed below will contain the following files:
+
+ hdf5\proj\hdf5\debug -
+ hdf5\proj\hdf5\release -
+ hdf5.lib- the F90 and C hdf5 libraries
+
+
+Testing libraries and tools
+
+ 1. See the file INSTALL_Windows.txt (STEP 2) for how for instruction on
+ testing the C HDF5 library and tools.
+
+ 2. To test Fortran HDF5 Library, run testhdf5_fortran.bat in the
+ hdf5\fortran\test directory
+
