-************************************************************************
- Building instructions for HDF5 with MPICH on Windows
-************************************************************************
-
-Preconditions:
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-1. Installed MPICH for Windows. These instructions assume you have MPICH in C:\MPICH
-
- To install MPICH for Windows see
- http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich/mpich-nt/
-
-2. Installed HDF5 with multi-treaded DLL support. To install HDF5 with multi-treaded DLL
- see /release_docs/INSTALL_Windows.txt
-
-
-Build HDF5 with MPICH
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-These instructions explain how to build the following projects that use the MPICH
-library in HDF5:
-
-1. testphdf5. Tests the HDF5 interface to MPICH
-2. t_mpi. Tests some MPICH functions
-3. ph5diff. Runs the h5diff tool in parallel mode
-
-To run these projects in Windows do:
-
-1. Define the following environment variable:
-
- HDF5_EXT_MPICH
-
- as
-
- mpich.lib
-
- For instructions about defining environment variables see /release_docs/INSTALL_Windows.txt
-
-2. Open the \hdf5\windows\proj\all\all.dsw workspace.
-
-3. Load each one of the above projects to the workspace. To load a project,
- right click on the root workspace icon and menu select 'Insert Project into Workspace'
- The projects are located in \hdf5\windows\testpar
-
-4. Add the following additional include and library directories to the Visual Studio environment
-
- C:\MPICH\SDK\Include
- C:\MPICH\SDK\Lib
-
- This can be done either globally in the menu Tools/Options/Directories
- or for each one of the projects hdf5dll, libtestD and toolslibD only (under the C++/Preprocessor
- tab dialog)
-
-5. Add dependencies of hdf5dll, libtestD to each of the following projects:
-
- testphdf5
- t_mpi
- ph5diff
-
-
- For ph5diff, dependencies should also include toolslibD.
-
-6. Before building each one of those projects, hdf5/src/h5pubconf.h has to be modified
- to have parallel on windows enabled. For this uncomment the following line
-
- #define H5_HAVE_PARALLEL
-
-7. Manually build hdf5dll, libtestD, toolslibD, testphdf5, t_mpi, ph5diff
-
-Note regarding testing the projects and HDF5 multi-threaded DLL installation
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
-
-Since the hdf5dll, libtestD, toolslibD projects were rebuild in step 7 they have to be reinstalled,
-that is, copied to the Windows system folder.
-For more details see /release_docs/INSTALL_Windows.txt.
