* [svn-r14255] Purpose: Add h5tinit.c to default Windows build processScott Wegner2007-11-131-53/+12
| | | | | | | | | Description: Previously, we provided a static h5tinit.c with our Windows distribution, and provided instructions to optionally generate it. Now, we will incorporate it as part of the default build process, to emulate other platforms more closely. Tested: VS6 VS2005
* [svn-r14253] Purpose: Update FTP location for Windows external library binariesScott Wegner2007-11-131-12/+6
| | | | | | | | Description: We recently uploaded new versions of our external library binaries to support more compiler configurations. This check-in is to point to the new location in our documentation. Tested: None
* [svn-r14141] Purpose: Update Windows testing documentationScott Wegner2007-09-101-145/+84
| | | | | | | | Description: There are minor changes in the testing process for Windows with the new test scripts. Specifically, the test output is output to the screen, rather than redirected into files, by default. Also, it is much easier to test parts modularly, and installing DLLs is one step, instead of separated batch files. Tested: None, only documentation changed.

* [svn-r14093] Purpose: Convert Windows projects to VS2005 format and support ↵Scott Wegner2007-08-161-266/+96
| | | | | | | | | | | 64-bit Fortran Description: This checkin is another Windows project cleanup, and also extends our Windows support for 64-bit Fortran. Project files are now in VS2005 format, rather than VS.NET. A couple projects have been renamed to be more descriptive (*cstub rather than *_lib), and project settings make better use of build macros. This will make them much easier to update in the future. Tested: VS2005 on WinXP 32-bit VS2005 on WinXP x64
* [svn-r14066] Purpose: Streamline Windows typegen projectsScott Wegner2007-08-101-8/+3
| | | | | | | Description: Previously the process of generating h5tinit.c, as well as the Fortran type files, was very manual on Windows. For Fortran, the process included opening 4 different solutions, and running 4 different commands from the prompt. I've made things very much more automated, and now only requires only building one project for either C or C/Fortran. Running the commands to generate the file is done automatically. Tested: VS.NET
* [svn-r14056] Purpose: Take advantage of new H5_HAVE_SIGLONGJMP flag in ↵Scott Wegner2007-08-081-13/+3
| | | | | | | | | | | H5detect.c Description: Visual Studio does not have the function siglongjmp. Therefore, we have created a new configure flag H5_HAVE_SIGLONGJMP that tests for this. We use this within H5detect.c. Tested: VS.NET h5committest
* [svn-r14036] Purpose: Fix Windows debug DLL naming schemeScott Wegner2007-08-031-10/+10
| | | | | | | | Description: At a previous seminar, it was brought up that the naming scheme for Windows debug DLL is inconsistent. Specifically, some use *ddll, while others use *dlld. *dlld is more widely-used, so we decided this is "correct". This changes others to use this scheme, and adapts other projects / install scripts / documentation. Tested: Visual Studio .NET on WinXP
* [svn-r14034] Purpose: Remove forced symbol "gethostname@8" from Windows projectsScott Wegner2007-08-021-7/+1
| | | | | | | | | | | | Description: Previously, we needed to force symbol definition "gethostname@8" for compatibility with old versions of Visual Studio. It appears that Visual Studio no longer requires this, so we remove it. This makes the build process on 64-bit much smoother. Also minor updates to main documentation, command-line documentation, and removed codewarrior and INTEL docs. Tested: VS.NET VS2005 chkmanifest

* [svn-r13982] Purpose: Update Windows documentationScott Wegner2007-07-161-5/+14
| | | | | | | | | | Description: The Windows documentation on generating H5tinit.c was lacking special instructions for Visual Studio 2005. Specifically, Windows does not support the function "siglongjmp". Previous versions of Visual Studio will ignore this function, but VS2005 produces an error. Tested: VS6 VNET VS2005
* [svn-r13951] Purpose: Update Windows documentationScott Wegner2007-07-061-116/+91
| | | | | | | | Description: Explain why Fortran isn't supported on MinGW and give users an "unsupported" alternative. Also re-worked the main documentation to clarify using the HDF5 DLL libraries. Tested: None needed.
* [svn-r13931] Purpose: Update Windows documentationScott Wegner2007-07-021-1312/+876
| | | | | | | | | | Description: This makes major updates to the Windows installation documentation, to account for the switch from VS6 to .NET. Installation instructions for 6.0 can also be found in INSTALL_Windows_Short_MSVS6.0.TXT, although it's noted that we are phasing out our VS6 support. Also added install instrctions for MinGW, to reflect our initial support. Updated MANIFEST for new file checkin. Tested: Instructions for each configuration have been tested.

| | | | | | | | | | file driver by default. After thorough testing, we think the windows driver is ready to be included. I've also updated our Windows documentation file to include 64-bit instructions. The process is fairly tedious right now, but we hope to make it more straight-forward when we depreciate 6.0 and re-work our project files. Tested: 32-bit WinXP: VS6, VS.NET, and VS 2005 64-bit WinXP: VS.NET and VS 2005
